Yes. I have to take some of the blame. He sent me an e-check on paypal which I have never dealt with. I went ahead and shipped the truck thinking that the transaction was secure. The day the money was suppossed to hit my account, I get an email saying the transaction was canceled due to no money in the guys account. He keeps telling me he is going to send a money order but it never shows up. I am posting this on every forum I can find.

the email I receive when someone pays me via eCheck through Paypal.

If you are shipping an item, please do not ship your item until the funds have cleared into your PayPal account. You will be notified by email when the funds have cleared into your PayPal balance.
it sucks, but the email clearly lets you know that the payment has not cleared and not to ship the item till it does.

I hope you get this resolved.

I had a problem selling to this guy but I DID get it resolved. I did have to hound the F out of him and it took a good couple of weeks. but he did come through. Just stay on him.

Did you use a credit card as payment? If so, call them up and tell them that Paypal hasn't taken care of it and to charge it back. I've only had to do this once and they took care of me.

i use existing funds that are already in my paypal account, i hate E-check and hate paying via CC .. i guess that is why paypal does not give a CRAP about my stolen funds, if its not paid by CC you wont have seller protection , you just get whatever amount is left in the sellers account if youre lucky you will get $0.10 like i did .
