Got ripped off on EBAY

[RWilson2526]

After years of use with absolutely no problems buying on ebay it appears I finally got screwed.....bought a new vhf for the boat back on 9/25 . the seller had like 26 feedbacks all good...To be honest I really dont even scrutinize that stuff as I've been lulled into complacency by trouble free purchases but I do remember seeing 26 and 100% next to his name.

So I pay with paypal (luckily) and I get no emails about "thanks for your order" or "you've won this bid" or shipping info which seems kind of weird...so yesterday on 10/3 I go back on ebay pull up the listings and the guy has like 40 feed backs in the last 3 days all of people that got ripped off. Today the listing wont even come up on EBAY as it has been removed.

I guess the guy could have died or something which must happen every once in a while or he could have just run with 4 or 5K it seems like he got . Fortunately it appears that paypal will cover my $94.50 not sure how long it will take....
