See, in my (rather lame) defense, this is why I didn't really have a problem with paypalling (it's a verb) a guy who I had barely corresponded with a bunch of money. Look at the outpouring of support here, and all the folks trying to help. This is the sort of community I'm used to on forums like...
Thanks to the folks here for the kind wishes and efforts to help. I, of course, am cutting my losses and trying to smarten up. I am sure that sharing the email address that he used for the paypal transaction is against forum rules so I won't do that.
He's a liar and a thief. My guess is that when he logged on after months of inactivity to check his thread, he hadn't had the P3A for weeks or months, and he spotted the sucker from a mile away.
Yes, I used the "send a gift" option so Paypal isn't going to help. I do hundreds of dollars worth...
He did reply to me as of two hours ago and claims he sent the drone, but could not provide a tracking number. Thanks to the folks here who helped out. Nothing to do now but wait.
Thanks all for your helpful replies.
So far, I have made use of the email he supplied for the paypal transaction. No response so far but it's only been about 24 hours.
Budman, I found your post to be especially helpful, thanks. If you're correct, and a package shows up at my house next week...
Hello all,
I perhaps foolishly agreed to buy a P3A from member, or shall I say former member sandman259. I sent him $550 via paypal last Wednesday, July 19th. As he seemed to be a long-time member here I figured there was little risk. I have not heard from him since and he has not responded to...
I'll buy it. Just signed up for this forum so this is my first post. My name is Eric and I'm in Massachusetts. I assume you'd agree paypal would be the way to go here? My wife has only authorized $550 but I should be able to pretend not to know that there was no shipping allowance. ;)
