If transaction is listed as completed, then you may ask the merchant for shipping info to be provided. You have 180 days to dispute as Item Not Received or Significantly Not As Described.

 

To file a dispute:

Locate payment transaction in your PayPal account activity, click it, then click "Report a problem" and choose the most appropriate option:

 

(Note: the option you choose makes or breaks your claim so choose correctly!)
