It isn't 'what you've gotta do' paypal protection is their for a reason, if I was scammed out of that amount of money I'd make damn sure they didn't get away with it, but I suppose you're taking a step in the right direction informing the police. Good luck, maybe one day we will see this build start.

its started... but the cpu blew up withing 2 hours...
Anyway, paypal and ebay buyer protection refuse to step in, due to the purchase being over 45 days ago

Did the CPU "blow up?" It's very rare, far more likely the board just went pop. Any testing to confirm? Jumping to conclusions is a bad idea, anywhere, especially in IT

One day you'll get there

His mobo died, and like an idiot he sent off his CPU without testing.
Funnily he was warned about the mobo, that it wouldn't take his CPU well.
 
i know it was stupid to send the cpu of, but as soon as i diagnosed tit could be the cpu aswell i sent it straight back :L

You didn't diagnose anything.
Your board died and then you just acted irrationally.
There's a reason we tell you to do things, it's because we have working PC's that don't lose us money.

Well what else was i supposed to do, i had no other board to test it with, and the smoke came from around the cpu area, there were also what looked like burn marks on the cpu. so...

Did it not occur to you that the motherboard might be dead too? Were the marks already there on the CPU? Did you take photos as evidence before sending it off? Can you take photos of the motherboard now? Have you been able to test the motherboard since?

No marks before the blow, i tested the motherboard, and that was broken, i got a replacement one a week after i sent of the cpu.
i Asummed due to the burn marks and the amount o smoke it took the cpu with it aswell.
Yess i did take photo's prior to shipping the cpu and motherboard. Thanks

I work for everything i get, i earn my money, in fact my familys rather middle class and never have much money :L
Ebay buyer protection should get me a refund o replacement for the product, but due to me buying the cpu over 45 days ago they refuse to step in.
Why do you want to see the pictures ? :L

Upload the photos so we can see.

And as wentalong has said, why are you not bothered? I would be hasseling Paypal every second I could about it.

There is nothing that i can do, my mother may report him to the police, but that wont solve anything, I was warned, I ignored those warning, It was my fualt, But there is no point crying about it, Ive already earnt £65 towards a replacement.

Not to repeat myself but...

It just seems from an outside prespective, reading this thread, I cant help but think some of this is just a farse. If you truely wanted it sorted, it wouldnt be the case that your mum "may" report him, but she "would" report him.

You say its your fault, that is evidently true, but there is much you can do yet to get your money back. Its just like you really cant be bothered and are acting defeatist.
