I'm just trying to figure out why after all this the op still hasn't contacted the police? If he knows the money he sent was cashed at a bank and he didn't receive the good he faithfully paid for then the obvious next step after trying multiple times to contact the seller would be to call the local authorities. Just saying if I had gotten screwed over by methhead 1 and 2 I would be doing everything I could to hold their toothless asses accountable.
