Default FYI

This guy on ebay is only taking cash, no paypal (check or wire transfer). Which means you can't use a credit card. In english this means once the money is sent to him, its gone. I bought an item for 400.00 and used paypal, but as a bank transfer, not a credit card, and got burned. Ebay and paypal could care less, filled complaints for weeks, every service I could find. Still have nothing to show for it, and the guy is still on ebay screwing people.

Moral of the story, IF I had used a credit card, the credit card company would have held the payment at my request. THEN and only then, would ebay and paypal care. So next time you buy something through ebay or where ever, use a credit card.
ITs the only way to get insurance on your purchase.

Anyone who takes cash, money order only, stay away from.
