i'd wait otherwise at least a week just in case. the designer could have flaked, but for all we know his mother had a heart attack or something. if the job wasn't time sensitive, give it a little time - but never over a month.
unless i have lots of experience with a designer, i try not to pay in full ahead of the word. half is enough at most, and a lot of designers i've worked with don't ask for money till delivery.
btw, paying by paypal is hazardous if the work is adult because it's completely against paypal policy. they may want to know about the site/design, and also he could "get even" for your complaint be reporting the kind of site you have.
