[Dark Horse]

I did ask for Standard parcels which he agreed to.

Just had this reply:

However I did give him £6 which he did agree to:

I'm think I'm going to have to go to the ebay protection thing with this one

Great spelling from the fella there. I suspect ebay's complaints procedure might be your best bet.

It is his responsibilty to get it to you. If he agree's different terms and it then fails it is still his responsibilty.

if ebay do not recover the money for you then got to you local Citizens advice bureau and the police. You should be able to claim it back through the small claims court.
