Another Ebay scammer.... Ebay has made it SOOOOO easy for people to scam on their site, and they've removed way too much security. It's all about the almighty dollar to the folks there.

Anyway, when I use Ebay, I try hard to use a credit card through Paypal, even if I have to pay more to do so or I use a US Postal Service money order. The fact of the matter is that if you get screwed, your credit card company will refund the money back off your card, and THEY will go looking for the thief. Credit card companies do not like losing money, and they have a resources to put these scammers away. Felony mail fraud doesn't look good on people's record either, heh.

I bought my '96 Explorer, and a lot of other stuff off Ebay, but after my last transaction, I realized Ebay is one of the worst/most unsecure sites to make transactions on. They won't even review/investigate complaints without you paying them.

INSANE.
