hello everybody i really need some help. i purchased a car via paypal from someone across the country from me. i saved pics of the ad and our conversations. i asked him many times if anything was wrong with it or broken. The pictures he sent me of the car looked good but then when i recieved the car from the shipping company the car was missing parts, has more problems than listed, also is ridden with rust and a bent frame. what can i do? he lied about the condition.

File a dispute with PayPal for "not as described".
Be aware, however, that you may have to pay return shipping costs even if PayPal decides in your favor.
Also, be aware that PayPal does NOT provide buyer protection of vehicle purchases. (Policies 13.4.a)
Purchaseing a vehicle sight unseen is extremely high risk and such an offer to sell is likely to result in significant loss when using PayPal.
