i agree ebay is a terrible place to buy or sell. i "purchased" some dale earnhardt die cast cars years ago to never receive them, and they didnt cost enough to make a claim through ebay.

Saying "that stinks" doesnt help any but you have it from me anyways.
Let us know how that works with the cops stopping by his house.

Well it worked out, got my money back in full. :)
Seems as though people get nervous when you tell them you are going to stop by their local law enforcement office with documentation of what all is going on....
he he he

Glad this all worked out, and thanks for the warning. I was thinking about selling a one-of-a-kind Gibson acoustic guitar which I made for myself at the Gibson custom shop in Bozeman, MT. - probably worth $4,000 - $5,000. After your experience, I think I'll find another way to sell it.

Please do... by the time you get done selling on ebay you are going to be paying around 10-15% of the purchase price back to them for using their site. For my item, which sold at $188.50, I owed ebay $18.59 seller's fees. So if you sell something for $4,000 you are going to be paying well over $400 in seller's fees. Plus, ebay is a headache anymore. If I buy anything from here on out, it'll be from an actual store on ebay--- one with an address and a real person I can talk to. Not some joe-smoe who wants to scam me.
