A vendor having no contact info on their site besides an email link is always a warning sign to me.
Paying by credit card through PayPal gives you extra protection. At least you'll get satisfaction from your CC company, who will deny the charge.
If you pay by "instant transfer" from your PayPal balance or via a link to your bank account, you should be covered by PayPal if the vendor doesn't deliver. A few months ago I came close to finding out the hard way that if you send a payment as a "gift" so the receiver doesn't have to pay a ~3% fee, your payment is NOT covered. When I called PayPal because I thought I'd been scammed, I got virtually zero information from them. It was infuriating. I still use them but as little as possible.
Why not buy your pulley from Jake at Flat6? You know it'll be a quality piece and you'll be doing a little to support a forum sponsor who's shared a hell of a lot of valuable information with us.
