I just received a reply by PM so we will see where this goes once the package arrives tomorrow.   It was all just very unnerving as the only time I've ever had  a paypal claim filed against me was a "not as described" scam when i sold my iPhone on eBay.  It's not a nice thing to wake up to.  ...

*** Updated: Headphones arrived and paypal claim was withdrawn.  All is well, miscommunication resolved. ***       Hi all,   I've been a member of these forums for 10 years (always as a lurker . . . antisocial :) ), and like many of us have sold and traded gear in the classifieds from time...

basque food is the best in the world, and I hate the basques, FWIW. It is the perfect combination of traditional spanish and french... also for the record provincial spanish food is what he is talking about... basque/galicia/cataluña/andalucía... food in madrid is not overwhelming
