Default Have I been scammed? (sorted)

Firstly it was Ebay, no great surprise there, as I've heard plenty bad stories but have been using the site for 5 years and only had one instance where i got sent escos indicators instead of saph ones, out of maybe 300 purchases or so.

Anyway along comes my M5, and being a crap winter last year i decided to buy a "spare" set of smaller rims for winter use with the correct tyres. Looked for a set for ages and finally came accross a set on Ebay, i won and paid for the items as you do.

Get home yesterday to find ONE wheel has been delivered, instantly got pissed off thinking that the seller had advertised a set but decided to split them up and send me one wheel or it was a crap advert and it meant one wheel etc...
Anyway so I contacted UPS they told me the package was 1 piece, not 4, so that got me more wound up.
Contacted seller and he assures me that he sent all 4, so i ask him why UPS say there was only one item sent and he never replied, only saying that they might turn up tomorrow.
I then sent him an email asking for the tracking number and he replied saying he will give it to me IF the wheels don't turn up tomorrow, what difference does that make, give me the number!!!!!!!
For justnow i'll give him the benefit of the doubt but I suspect he's upto something.
Oh and I did check his feedback and it's all good, but something not right! Guess it's my fault for buying stuff of Ebay but you generally expect everyone to be as honest as yourself and not be a dick!
I hope it's just a simple "logistical" error
