I've been on Audi, Porsche, and BMW forums and I see this happen so often (at least 2 threads a month) where PayPal ends up having to be the arbiter in a dispute like this.

honestly because 1. I am idiot 2. I have a soft heart. I did have a local buyer infact I had 2, but the guy who I was selling to told me this story about how he got into an accident and really really needed the bumper and I got soft hearted and not only gave up on 2 local sales but was willing to ship it to him, now this happens. I want to say lesson learned and move on but honestly I just feel really stupid now
on a side note, mediaartist you ready for round 1?
this is going to be a fun series
