Good luck sorting this out.
Well, on the other hand, I've had well over 700 auctions on ebay and not had a problem. (50 of those were music related stuff synths, guitars, etc)
As my own rule I never do "big money" transactions on ebay unless I have the option for Escrow. That way both parties are protected. Like many things in life, nothing is guaranteed.
The one time I used the HC classifieds, I got burned. Maybe my lottery number was up for that one.
