Glad you got your money back though, because I don't like for scammers to win.

It only takes that one time, I don't normally buy from people with no feedback(although I have and some people have bought from me with no feedback) but you jhust have to be careful and ask tons of questions. That's how I found a few scammers on other sites. One example, item, all looked legit but asking many question confused the guy and he tripped up on his facts and then you should've seen the backpeddling he was doing trying to cover himself.


Just consider yourself lucky that the guy you dealt with was a bad scammer because a good one would not have been so kind and his scam would have been much harder to get out of.
