what should i do?

[westaussie47]

Hi hope someone can help, i recently bid on a cell phone and lost out.

The next day i recieved a second chance offer on the phone and accepted it even tho the seller had low feedback i thought everyone has to start somewhere. After paying into there bank account the full amount i have heard nothing even after many emails to the seller.

I opened a dispute case on ebay and the 10 days went past with nothing from the seller, then ebay closed the dispute and now i am left with no phone and out of pocket.I have been looking daily at there feeback and now have found out that the person that won the cell phone has now left negative feedback because they are going through the same round about as me, i looks like this seller has sold the phone twice and pocketed the cash and kept the phone.After doing some digging i have a cell number they used when they picked up something from another seller but no address,i just dont know what to do next and feel a bit lost as this has never happened to me in over 200 buys on ebay. I know this sort of thing happens but when you pay direct into a persons bank account it looks like there is nothing much you can do to get the money back.

Hope someone can set me on the right track as apart from calling this person and getting nasty i cant think of anything else to do.

Many Thanks Steve
