ebay and jeeps

Yaeh....gotta be careful on E-Bay. Got burned a few years ago on some new old stock taillights for our 67 Mustang. The schmuck was in California, apparently sold the same item to 6 different people, only one of us got it.....but he collected from all of us. We had all paid through Pay Pal......their "guarantee" SUCKS! He didn't deliver, they wouldn't re-imburse any of us. I contacted the FBI (I was PISSED and can be just a little vindictive at times) Was told to always send a check or money order.....never use a third party. Then If they turn out to be a scammer, but accepted the money through the US Mail....they just commited a felony and then.....BUSTED!!
By the way, don't pay with a personal check either as your complete routing information is printed on the check and that is all anyone needs to drain your account electronically.
