yes, after 9 wonderful years of careful ebay shopping looks like I have finally gotten ripped off. Buyers beware, ebay no longer offers ANY help, support, or assistance if you are ripped off. All buyer protection plans have been cancelled unless you pay with paypal, and with paypal you now have limited protection.
I won an Austin Powers from an individual seller almost a month ago. He just keeps promising to send it eventually, but has so far promised to provide tracking numbers, then excuses, then more promises, more excuses, now no response at all. When I brought this up to ebay their response is that you can apparently steal from up to 3 people before they will take any action, and that they will do nothing for those that have been ripped off. They wont even offer any advice on what you can do, which is apparently nothing.
Anybody here in the Shaumburg, IL area? I can give you the address where my machine is...maybe you could pick it up for me?
