this is just terrible to hear. I guess you paid without any protection, like paypal or something, I don't know if a credit card would have protection in a case like this. I also gather they weren't endorsed here in the who's who of sellers on the forum? If in any way you took a chance, while this is horrible, well... you took a chance, putting your faith in human nature. It seems you have very little recourse now, but I'd try to call and speak with them rationally. At worst, they owe you a watch. A reminder though, you have to be careful, the onus, sorry to say, comes down to you... their site looks legitimate. Hard to stay in business with practices like that...
