Should I bring this to the mod’s attention?

I have brought something to their attention before with no reply.

You are pretty trusting. He joins in May 2018, few posts, no feedback, and you ship him over $1,200. Sure, he may be legit, but certainly doesn't have much history.

Let's hope Paypal is able to get your money back.

Its just a hassle to deal with paypal.

Paypal will refund my money even if they cant get it back from them.

I agree stupid move on my part!

I am trying to get a hold of another member to see what their dealings were like with him.

I have been selling and buying car parts online for the last 16 years and this site I have had more issues then any other site. I cant even recall a time I had any issues like on here. I guess I will not be so trusting in my future purchases and look at buying from sponsors not members.

Yeah I will get my money back from PayPal or my CC.

Lesson here for me is to search images and also ask to have them do some sort of verification of them having the parts before I send payment.

First time and last time for this happening to me. Sad the user isn’t banned yet.

Have you tried contacting the scammer with another phone number? Text/phone call to see if he responds?

OP, in my experience PP has been very responsive and prompt, if the seller does not respond to them he's cooked, you'll get your money back. I predict it will be quicker than you think.
