I agreed to buy an item on gumtree and pay through paypal I paid by sending money directly as the person asked! He said it would otherwise take 7 days to clear and if I wanted it sent soon I should do it directly. It was a credit card transaction though. The person continued to advertise after I had paid for two days and when a friend contacted him he said it was still for sale. I challenged him and he replied he was just joking. Oh Yeah!!!! It has not turned up and he keeps saying he has sent it but says he does not have a receipt of the postage. I can't see a way I can dispute this transaction as a good not received. It only gives me the unauthorised transaction option. WHAT DO I DO PLEASE?
