This is easy...
It's not uncommon for sellers to print up a shipping tag and not ship for a few days. It IS uncommon that a 'where's my package' question goes unanswered.
At least for ebay USA, in the 'my ebay area' you can see the expected arrival date. If the package doesn't arrive by that date, a dispute can be opened the next day.
I buy lots of stuff on ebay and I'm cold and calculating when dealing with sellers that do not do everything exactly the way it's supposed to be done.
I'll send one request for info like your friend did. If I get no response, I open a case at the first possible chance. If the seller is alive and well, THIS will get their attention.
DON'T FEEL BAD ABOUT IT.
If the seller had shipped when they were supposed to, none of this would have happened.
