How did you pay? If it was with paypal or a credit card, contact either of them (i'd sugges the credit card company, personally) to get your money back..

Is that what you are asking?

Yamaha fan and his other username, dreamseller, has been banned for account fraud.

I would report it, but we all know nothing will come of it. Thank god it was only $25.00.

It sickens me how a few bad apples will ruin the trading experience for everyone. It appears even having a great feedback score is no longer proof the guy is not a crook.

My feedback is only 24 or something, but I will NEVER ship first to anyone that does not have a 75+ anymore. If that buggers a trade, so be it, but I have to protect myself first, at least until this spate of crooked traders die down, and it seems there are a bunch of them out there now.
