I hope this is the place to send this post. If it is not, let me know and I will re-post this.
I recently responded to an Astromart ad and sent a cashiers check and I did not received the telescope.
I was able to contact the seller one time since the agreed sale by PM, about 3 weeks after sending the money. He stated he received the cashiers check and sent the scope, but it was damaged in transit by USPS. He stated the money order was less than what I had sent to him, that he was not a thief (?) and he said he was sending the money back to me. I thought it strange that he would ship the scope if the check was not the amount agreed upon. The statement of not being a thief sounded good at the time and I gave him the benefit of doubt.
I sent him the check on 5/26/09 and I have received no cash back and no attempts to contact me by e-mail or PM. One other thing, he has since deleted the ad he posted, the one I responded to.
Can you help me with this?
Thanks,
Mark
