Report him to Ebay. Did you pay with a credit card or paypal? You might be able to get your money back as he did not deliver what he adviertised.

I found him on e-bay but he was selling a bunch of stuff in one auction so I do not have a direct purchase number. E-bay will not cover indirect purchases. I paid through Paypal but I don't think they will cover it either. Anybody ever had this happen to them?

I got stiffed recently from an EBAY purchase. The guy took a powder so EBAY was useless in helping me.

Sucks, no?

The worst thing is this guy had 100% feedback. I thought that I was o.k. but I guess not. I hate dishonest people

I was taken for $300 about 6 monthe ago on Ebay. The guy also had excellent feedback. I paid with paypal which had a link to my checking account. After my purchase he canceled his ebay and paypal account so there was nothing that they could do to help me. I did, however, report him to the FBI as they have an internet fraud division. I will only pay with a credit card after that experience.
