Scammed for $2000 4090

Hi,

I bought an RTX 4090 from a user for $2000 AUD and the seller hasn't responded nor sent the items for 3 days already. At first, he was pretty nice and was telling the reason he sold his card and stuff but as soon as I made the payment, he was silent since. The original listing was an auction but doesn't allow offer, I was asking him if I can offer $2400 (with $400 through PayID and $2000 through Afterpay due to Afterpay limits) and he accepted it and relisted the item.

 

Upon looking at his profile, I can only see that he is rated 100% as a buyer and hasn't sold anything. And I also saw that his listing has the exact same picture as another guy: 
GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4090 WINDFORCE 24GB GDDR6X Graphics Card 4719331311476 | eBay (his)

GIGABYTE GeForce RTX 4090 WINDFORCE 24GB GDDR6X Graphics Card 4719331311476 | eBay (other guy)

 

The other guy is clearly legit since he has 354 positive feedbacks as a seller. Now the question is how I can cancel the order since eBay doesn't let me cancel this order now, and how can I get my money back. Do I need to wait for it to past the expected delivery day?

Thank you all, you guys have been so supportive throughout the whole process. Cannot thank you enough. I am issuing a chargeback through my bank for the $400 now, not really hoping it would turn out ok but worth a shot. I will mark this thread as solved now. ๐Ÿ˜˜
