Thanks Guys.

I do feel like my credit card company will come through for me. This is obviously a case of fraud and PayPal's policy regarding only allowing one claim per transaction is almost criminal.

Christopher Hunyh's Audiogon account has been suspended so his AG username Vott99 will probably not come up anymore. He will probably have a new username so beware of the name. His PayPal username, which is still active, is cs32799@yahoo.com.

I do agree though that paying with a credit card us the safest form of payment. I also stay away from sellers who only accept money orders. Just too much risk since it's like sending cash. Unless the seller has A LOT of feedback or is a pretty well known person here in the Asylum.

I wish that someone else would start an online payment system that had better protections. Like holding funds in escrow until the buyer is satisfied with the transaction. That certainly puts the onus on the seller to be truthful.
