[QUOTE="LakeEffect, post: 8401959, member: 43201"]Against my better judgement, let's see if I follow this... 1. You made a purchase on eBay. 2. Seller botched the transaction. 3. eBay/PayPal buyer protection made it right. 4. You attempted the same transaction outside of eBay (which is against eBay rules, unethical, and kinda dumb) and seller once again botched the transaction. So, it appears to me that you sent some random guy on the internet some money in the hopes that he would send you something in return, and he didn't (for a second time). Since you and the seller did an end-around on eBay, they have no relevance any more. The transfer agent (PayPal?) couldn't care less where you send your money as long as you authorized it. So it's between you and random guy to work it out. Maybe you can void the transaction through the transfer agent or take random guy to small claims court, or something else entirely?[/QUOTE]
