Scammed By Godly...

I know he has great Itrader Feedback but about a month ago i but up a WANTED add for a stock lnf airbox. He pm'd me said 45.00 Shipped. I pm'd him the next morning saying that i didnt need it anymore i found my old one he said he already shipped it out im like ok no big deal. its been over a month i have never gotten it and he never replied to about my 10 pms about it. i went to file a paypal claim and apparently i sent it as a gift because i believe he said it was 50.00 if i didnt. I asked for a refund several times and nothing. hopefully he chimes in because 45.00 bucks is 45 bucks..

Damn, he atleast seemed like a decent fellow but this is the internet. Never let anyone tell you to send money as a gift over paypal.

never send as a gift unless it's your buddy, you can still send 45 with like a 2 dollar fee you just take the fee when you send it, don't pass it off on the seller.

basically he told me even when someone sends him $ it doesnt take out fees for him? i was confused so i sent him the money because i wouldnt think it mattered. i didnt think i sent it as a gift but apparently i did because i tried to make a claim but it just said i had to go direct to the seller...

if you gift it doesn't take fees if you send marked as goods it takes a % out. just be glad it was 45 and not more i guess and noone should buy from him from now on.

I also tried to get a set of headrests from him and after about a month of not getting them he finally gave me a refund. But how do you not get something shipped out in a month?
