Did you contact the seller yet ? Could he have made a honest mistake?

**JayBell** · May 8th, 2008, 11:06 PM

so, have you tried to contact the guy?

if so, what was the reply.

if not, why not.

without further info disclosed on communications between you, its possible this is just a mistake.

Obviously yes, I called immediately after I opened it, he played dumb and said he would put another one in the mail, ok satisfied me enough for them. E-mailed him later asking if he sent it because by tuesday I would be turning it into my CC company and he wrote back "That's good. And yes you got the trigger as is as described on the ad. Take care. Any further phone calls will be considered harassment. "

You need to check feedback before bidding.
This guy had two negative fedbacks out of four before you bid.
