I'm glad you may be getting your money back, OP, and I can't think of a better example of why buying something from someone you don't know and who hasn't built up a reputation is generally not advisable.
I know it's unpopular with some folks here, but I still say that a 10-post minimum before posting a FS or WTB ad is waaaay too little. I'd say make it at least 50 posts or have someone vouch for the seller to a mod/admin (and the voucher would have to have over 100 posts). That said, there have been scammers on here who we thought were awesome folks (eg Dale Davis), but most scammers are too lazy to spend the time to build up a rep.
