thats terrible, have you pointed out to ebay the tracking number is for another item?

also did you pay by paypal? if yes open a dispute, paypal are very good.
 
hi m8 yes i paid thru paypal + i also opened a dispute against him because of the tracking number he got away with it + i even pointed it out 2 someone in the paypal dept but its now closed so what can i do but leave it
 
you got his address pay him a visit PayPal sucks just money grabbers.
i was scammed 300 pound using western union there was nothing i could do it was my fault in the first place in send the money but i guess i trusted the guy and he done me over was for an iphone 4 he gave me knocked off tracking numbers, oh well life does still go on they will get whats coming to them.
hope you sort this out my tbh i think you lost this battle its funny the good people that tell the truth are the once that get fiddlesticked over :( shows paypal doesn't really care about there people its just about keeping there business sweet but there is nothing we can do if you want to use ebay you have to use paypal simple.

This is supposed to be a hobby with decent and honest people but this is yet another case where get ripped off in some cases where you have been chatting and having a laugh on forums or what have you. I'm glad to say I've not had any issues other than a "technical problem" pitstop tuning in Holland where they took a payment twice for goods but that was resolved and in the end I was more than happy.
I always have loads of spares for sale and although this is partly down to lazyness I don't post many things out. I'd rather people call in for a brew or meet at a track somewhere and "have a look through my parts" (no sniggering at the back of class please) so they know what they're getting.

I hope you get this sorted out and we should all get together (where legally possible) to name & shame these bastards that want to fook up our hobby for a few quid.
