hey bill... i had a similar problem about a year ago with a purchase... i had paid by paypal using a visa card so i contacted the credit card company and filed a claim since there had been no shipment after 30 days... the visa card reimbursed me then they billed paypal who in turn went after the crooked seller for their reimbursement... the visa folks informed me to ALWAYS pay by credit card so i could use that process if a problem developed... in other words i pay visa; visa pays paypal; paypal pays the seller; the reverse takes place when there is a problem...
