Paid normally?.. no gift card etc. straight from bank to paypal to him... and for $100 once i sent the payment i was getting the feeling it was to good to be true... he originally offered me the DX3R + Losi8E rtr brand new ( also sent me a picture ) for $350 shipped. but i had no interest in the losi and we started talking about the dx3r, witch i did have interest in. also in the picture of the LOSI8E you can see the Dx3R in the background...

well, looks like you will get your money back if he cant supply a confirmation number, hope things work out for you! dont let one guy ruin it for you here, there are alot of nice guys here! just do alittle more research before jumping on a super killer deal.

what was the paypal account he used w/ you?

He had a couple w/ me, and actually sent me a type address for a non existant paypal account that I almost sent money too, but caught the typo before I sent it...

His business account was [email protected]

his other was [email protected] , but I have no doubt he's probably got dozens of bogus emails and probably unverified paypal accounts.


CALL PAYPAL on the phone

TELL THEM TO LOOK UP INFO ON BARRY m FOSTER
