Be sure to file a claim with PayPal for "Item not received".
It takes about 10 days for a decision to be made; PayPal gives the other party time to respond to the allegations.
This should be pretty straightforward; he has to provide a tracking number, proving shipment. Obviously, he didn't send you anything, so PayPal will return your funds, as long as you didn't send it using "Friends and Family".
