[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]Nic: You’re welcome. As crappy as it sounds, you have to chalk this one up to experience. I had a similar experience with my 11 year old son and an eBay purchase of some Star Wars action figures. I figured that it was a rip-off and told my son, but he was adamant about the purchase, so I let him use my PayPal.
Following, I sent an email to the seller and let him know he had just ripped off a heartbroken 11 year old boy and he sent me a snotty response along the lines of “live and learn”. It was a valuable, if unfortunate, lesson for my son, but he took it to heart.[/quote]
You should have recourse with PayPal and Ebay – what was the sellers feedback? For me to buy from a seller the feedback has to be 99.5% and above to even start considering a purchase.
