Has anyone purchased a tech 2 off ebay recently? I got scammed, just wondering if anyone else did.

The paypal went to a different address than the guy who emailed me.
The mangeling of english in the email sounds like the nigerian scan letters, and he is telling me that he will ship 2-4 days after the money is transfered into his bank account.

Because I used paypal and a CC it is more an annoyance than anything else.

I'd like to find this guy and break his fingers though.
