NAC ebay question

[cobram at juno.com]

Best advise: Forget about it.  eBay will do absolutely NOTHING.  I know
people who were ripped off etc. and eBay did less than nothing for them,
so in your case, since you haven't put up a deposit or anything, just
about every state will allow sellers remorse and you're SOL.

This happened to me with a bedroom set I bought through the want ads
once, when the seller found a buyer that would pay 3 times what I had
paid, he tried to slime out of the deal, BUT, in this case he had my
deposit and I had a receipt.  Took him to court and he had to give up the
goods and my court costs.
