I think the chances of this NOT being a scam are quite slim at this point.
Will head-fi be releasing ip address and any personal info?

EDIT: forgot to note that I also paid for the nano.

Why do you want his IP or personal info? His IP would only lead to somebody here attempting illegal actions towards him, attempting to harm him, or contacting his ISP to get personal info which is ridiculous. Head-fi most likely has only his ip anyway, and no personal info, so there isn't too much you can do.

If we have his personal info, we can file a police report. At least those inclined to go through the trouble. Thanks for asking.

Yes, but it'de be difficult with just an IP to get his personal infromation. His ISP will be very cautious, and probably refuse to give you his personal information.

Update: Still hasn't responded to my email yesterday and the one I sent this morning. Finding out he sold the same items to multiple people is worrying me now. I wouldn't go as far as hunting him down. I'm plannng on going through Paypal and my credit card...

I never said it would be easy or even possible. Just want to see what information is going to be available before deciding on the best course of action. What are you, his lawyer?

paypal will probably not refund ur money because most likely this person closed his account. but ur cc company might.

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to do this or if its legal and even if it's real but this is what the seller gave me:

Haden Stephenson
807-32 Parkside Boulevard W.
Calgary, Alberta T2K 6A2
Canada

403-287-7946

It seemed real because I was really close to calling him.
I hope this helps.

Oh mannn, i completely forgot a bought the broken iPod from him too. I buy a lot of broken iPods so I guess I lost track of things and never realized that it didnt come in. Fudge, im gonna see what paypal can do for me at this point.
