I hope they do and you can put this one to rest. I too suffered through the 'lost in post', so I know the feeling. I hope they just briefly got stuck in a sorting machine and we are all just over analyzing the situation...

ok after numerous attempts to contact this member both on here and to his private email address i finally gave up and lodged a claim through paypal.they tried many times to contact him and also gave up yesterday.They did however refund the monies i had paid to him through paypal.received those in bank today so all credit to them for dealing with the problem.Aside from not getting the models i wanted at least im not out of pocket.Im very disapointed with the way this seller has acted or rather has not acted and would advise any future buyers to be wary of him

PayPal takes fraud very seriously. A couple years ago someone got my credit card number and used it to make 2 $1100 transactions through PayPal, but not via my PayPal account, which wasn't compromised. I of course immediately contested the charges with my credit card company, then got ahold of PayPal tech support. They addressed it, including working with my credit card company to remove the charges, in less than an hour.

theres a lot of sneaky people out there, and a person that buys something without seeing even a pic of that object is a fool

I think the better point is that there is sneaky people everywhere and we need to make sure that the community as a whole protects one another starting with those who have the power to do so. I am not going to say that this wouldn't have happened if there were measures in place, but I think if there was a nice disclaimer posted a the top of the For Sale By Owner section, perhaps those who don't intend on following through with what they promise would move on knowing it might be at the expense of their membership otherwise...

i actually take offence at being called a fool because i trusted a member of this forum to honour his agreementsits the first time in over ten years of buying over the internet i have been let down

[Gman93643]

And you should take offense. This has happened to the best of us, myself included. It is really no different than buying something on an auction site such as eBay. The difference there is of course is that there is buyer protection to mitigate the effect of issues such as this, while here there is not. Something has to change...
