I believe he had sold 2 other turbo manifolds previously and had 2 positive feedbacks.

They no longer are willing to offer the $2,000 because they say his company is too new to them so they cant offer that much anymore. But after that they will take "action" and try to sue him for the rest of the money and depending on what they get they will refund to me. OR i can take legal actions myslef. THIS ALL SOUNDS LIKE BS...EBAY AND PAYPAL SUCK I have all the evidence against this guy and yet im getting screwed and i have to guess if he has money in his account and take a chance on loosong $3100 because he fucked up and admitted to not sending the parts and lying all in his emails. WOW im lost
Uh do what quickvic said to do?

Wow, Why the fuck would you send someone 3,100 if they were that new. I could have told u that woulda happened. That was a very dumb move on your part.

ALWAYS use credit card funding when you pay through paypal, you have to click it every time you pay someone, this way you can always go through your credit card company when paypal decides to screw you
