Anyone live nearby? I think I got scammed out of $97.50 off eBay and may need someone to swing by and pick it up for me.
After being an eBay member for almost 10 years, this is a first for me. I went against my better judgement and did not choose to practice what I preech.

As long as you paid with credit card you should be ok. Just call the credit card company and tell them you paid for something on ebay and the seller has not sent it to you and is not responding to emails. I have had to deal with several scammers on ebay as of late seems to be picking up.

Unfortunately, I paid with a Postal Money Order.
I will get back $47.50 from eBay. They charge $25 PER transaction for buyer protection.

I have been an eBay seller for 8 years. I have been very sucessful and very wise about my dealings on the web. Unfortunately, I made one little slip. Sad thing is I realized it about two days after I sent his payment.:wallbash:
Fortunately, it was only $97 not $970.

Same here I have been with ebay for alot of years and I am coming across problems that I never had before with buyers and sellers. It has to do with the good and evil in the world and ebay is a snippet of that.

It is amazing how many emails my wife and I get DAILY with spoof eBay emails.
I ALMOST got suckered with one of them about 3 months ago. It was a good attempt. I have a 664 feedback, my wife has over 5,000 so we are no strangers to eBay. Still don't know how I ***'d this one up.
