If you payed by credit card the best thing to do would be contact your credit card company. They should credit you and go after the seller themselves since it is credit card fraud then.

thanks for ur help guys!

you can get the guy into huge trouble with ebay. if worst comes to worst, lawsuits can be justly filed. But if i were you, i'd contact ebay right away for now.

I'm not sure what eBay's policy's are, but if you paid through Paypal, make sure you contact them before 30 days pass after your pay date, otherwise they will not help you!

Which I think is kinda ridiculous, since some packages (especially oversea's) can take up to 4-6 weeks, so you have to give the person a chance for the post to arrive.

Oh btw, HERE is where you want to go to file for fraud protection.

What are my opitions?? THanks in advance..... Steve

bummer to hear man....if u paid via paypal u can take it up with them as well as ebay

ha! bullshit will ebay do anything. They will give him 1 strike. If he gets another then he gets banned from ebay. U really think ebay gives a shit what happens to u? This is why i always send cheques. That way i get the guys address, and he doesnt get any of my bank/cc details. If i get screwed over then, i shall only do 10x worse to him btw i remember this auction. Didnt the guy hav high feedback?? has he continued to do auctions ever since?
