Should I threaten him with the police?

I was one of the other buyers. I got a message from 'dwsjarcmcd' and 'percypiggies'.

Are you both victims?

just looked at this sellers account, it looks like he's hijacked a dormant account with good feedback, and the 2 recent feedbacks from sellers he has received, are possibly the sellers other hijacked accounts and have slightly suspicious feedback too!

Definitely a police matter, though I believe you would have to report it to the police in the area he lives as they would be the ones who would co-ordinate an investigation.

Gurdeepb, please tell your story so others can compare details to see if he's using the same sort of scam!

the police are a waste of time.
small claims courts are not much better either. ive got judgement against others before. still never got any money.
just spent more dosh proving my case. next step was bailiffs with their costs etc.. trouble was the birds had flown the nest.
what then? private detectives?
the whole system is a joke.

Gurdeep,

Yes! We should get together to look at what we can do

Just heard back from the seller, he says that Royal Mail returned the item (as no-one there to receive it) How stupid does this guy think I am, despite the tracking number being wrong and no card being left. He wants my address again - 3rd time. Stalling tactics or what, but getting interesting. Haven't tried the tactics of trading standards, inland revenue etc yet

dwsjarcmcd why not email him back to tell him that you will be in his area at the weekend with some friends for a stag night & that you will personally come round to his house to pick up the item as Royal Mail seem to be doing a very bad job of getting it you

Vinny, Not a bad idea (even though I'm in Yorkshire and he's in Londonderry, how will he know the difference). Actually it would be cheaper to go over there anyway....he could always refund my postage!!
