It was for £300, May not seem like a lot to some people but it was a christmas present (so ruined christmas for the person i bought it for)

Its about the principal of the thing. I'm fucking raging !! Its been nearly a month since I bought the item (computer) from him and its been 3 weeks since he last replied to me emails (sent him at least 6)

He even started a new auction with the same computer yesterday (which is now gone since I informed paypal)

This asshole is not going to be reasonable and Im not sure if i should even bother informing the police or going through the courts about this (seems like a load of hassle)

Might be best just to pay this dick a visit once i get his details

You're from Northern Ireland? Wouldn't be expensive for you to come over and see what the hell is going on.

Sucks thats what happened. Whats the spec for the computer? I have one for sale for £300 and its pretty good.

I may have to pay him a visit once I get his full details, I should be able to get those from paypal, they should have his bank details which he can't fake

Spec of the computer below

New Boxed MiniQ AMD ATHLON XP 1700+ Computer. Stylish cube shaped miniature pc. AMD Athlon XP 1700+ CPU. 256MB 2100 DDR RAM. 30GB Hard Drive. Samsung CDr/CDRW/DVD Drive. 4 x USB 2 X Firewire. 64mb (Shared Memory) Onboard Graphics. Onboard Sound. Onboard 10/100 Network. Digital SPDIF socket. Windows Xp Pro. Office Xp. Office 2000 Small Business Edition. Power DVD XP. Roxy CD Creator 6. Norton System Works

Really not great value for money even. This little episode has left a bad taste in my mouth concerning ebay, I can't see myself using it again. One bad experience is one too many as far as im concerned

If you paid him through PayPal you should get the money back, if not, then report it to your local Poloce giving all the details you have. They will then pass it onto the local force near the location and pay him a visit, he will be arrested for fraud.
