This was his previous similar advert about the same bad situation:
This little b*** welds wood!

And this is the mob that he's complaining about:

... Awesome ...

Think of the ' things ' you could do this guy if you got hold of him .. !!!

I'd take him up to say .. 10,000 ft .... then give him a parachute that ' opens on impact '

It's amusing, but e-pollution. There are avenues for this.

Thats very funny I had tears in my eyes. Paypal folks don't give anyone your CC number. No paypal, no sale.

+1 as those interweb Johnnys say.

Paypal all the way - at least there's some whiff of protection - I'm yet to find out if their resolution service is a toothless tiger as I've got a small $60 storm on the horizon.

Also, avoid "Express delivery if you pay direct deposit to my bank account" - stuff that! Let them experience Paypals 3% seller pain!!

I, too, have a current 'no supply, no contact' with a China vendor. I'm down a whole $3.60!! Bummer!
