Ok, hopefully I can explain this well enough and I'm sure it is not uncommon (although I searched the topics and couldn't find anything that quite fit what happened to me). I.) I put an item up for auction on ebay. 2.) A potential buyer (who didn't have a rating of zero) asked if I could deliver it to Israel. 3.) I agreed as long as he paid the extra money for shipping. 4.) He agreed to the costs, sent the money (via paypal) to me, I then sent the item out in the mail. (it was a small rainjacket that he purchased for $120.) 5.) I noticed that he claimed he "didn't receive" the item. (although, I had package tracking) 6.) He REVERSED his payment. 6b.) Paypal somehow allowed this bull**bleep**??? 7.) I put in a "dispute" via ebay. 8.) Ebay agreed the guy was a scammer, because several other people on ebay were also scammed.(I received confirmation from ebay yesterday with a whole laundry list of things I could do to get my money back; none of which included ebay paying me back.) 9.) I'm still out $125 that was due to me. 10.) How do I get this resolved?
