If you had 10 days to respond and you didn't open it until the 11th day then that's honestly your fault. I'm sorry but $750 is a lot of money just to be throwing around and not checking up on.  If I sold something for 750 I would be making sure everything was %100 on the level and all good before i just stopped paying attention to emails. This guy did something shady, no disputing that. But you have 10 days to resolve everything and if you decided not to do anything about it then you allowed yourself to be scammed.  ... View more

@iancook226   Paypal give you seller protection but the onus is on you to read up on it when you start selling to make sure you have that coverage  >>   To be eligible for PayPal’s Seller Protection, you must meet all of the following requirements  The primary address for your PayPal account must be in the United States. The item must be a physical, tangible good that can be shipped. You must ship the item to the shipping address on the transaction details page in your PayPal account for the transaction.  If you originally ship the item to the recipient's shipping address on the transaction details page but the item is later redirected to a different address, you will not be eligible for PayPal Seller Protection. We therefore recommend not using a shipping service that is arranged by the buyer, so that you will be able to provide valid proof of shipping and delivery. You must respond to PayPal's requests for documentation and other information in a timely manner as requested in our email correspondence with you or in our correspondence with you through the Resolution Center. If you do not respond to PayPal’s request for documentation and other information in the time requested, you may not be eligible for Seller Protection. If the sale involves pre-ordered or made-to-order goods, you must ship within the timeframe you specified in the listing. Otherwise, it is recommended that you ship all items within 7 days after receipt of payment.   ... View more
