    Just use the Middleman service like the moderators says. NEVER use Paypal and send money as Friend/Gift. If you send a Gift/Friend you have no chance at charge back in case seller scams you. ALWAYS send as non-eBay goods. That way you can do chargeback.

    The PayPal Gift Option was discontinued last year. Now it's called Family and Friends. The reason people do it as pointed above is because you can't reverse the payment. That doesn't mean you can't fight back in some way though but it increases your chance at getting frauded.

    David Beard has been banned many times. Our systems have closed most of his accounts but he occasionally re-opens a new one that gets through our system. If you can track down this guy and find out who he is, we can fine him up to $1,000 + the amount he stole from you which we have ways of collecting that money. My guess is he is under the age of 18 so it would be the legal guardians we'd go after.

    Here is all his emails:

    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]

    I'll have @Disputes review this shortly and we'll try our best to assist you but any information you can found on this person, let us know as we can help you fight back.

    UPDATE: I was able to get my money back via PayPal dispute. Be advised that your bank can't do anything about the money. Only PayPal can since you authorized the payment. Be presistance and don't let these scammers get away with their scams. As the Admins recommend use the middleman. Anyone who says use KIK only is a scammer. If they are legit they will use middleman as you as the buyer pay the fees and not the seller. Any seller saying too much trouble is a scammer. If the price is low another warning sign. iTunes, Amazon gift cards etc. is another scam. Don't do it. Be warned.
