Now I may be out the $138, thought it was only $135 but upon checking the transaction I realized it was more.
I felt bad about filing a complaint until I received all your comments. He still has listings on EBay and I feel badly for people who order through that site right now. We went to him directly since I had his website so EBay wouldn't be able to help although he does list "refurbished machines" for $125 on there.
Thanks again folks. Live and learn I guess but at my age you would think I'd know better.
Did you pay through Pay-Pal using a major CC? If you did, you can file with you CC company. When I use Pay-Pal I always use a major CC for just this reason.
