    Already got them back.

    This is a serious problem for ebay though. They cannot afford to keep letting this happen asides from the money they have to refund each time, they are loosing customers. I'm sure i'm not the first to have been put off by the corrupt nature of ebay.

  • I don't think that ebay really care that much, they rake in so much a few scammers won't make a difference to them. Its a shame but true.
