If you know where he lives call the police department in in his town and ask them to look into it. Some places have an internet crime division that handle these things. Also for future notice I would only pay with PayPal or a USPS postal money order. When you pay with a postal money order and you don't receive an item it is considered mail fraud which is a federal crime.

Damn man, I'm sorry to hear that, where the heck did he ship em from you got an address, because a real texan wouldn't of done ya like that. If it's around the Houston area, maybe some of the southeast Texas gang needs to stop by his place for a refund and then some. You use paypal, they got some kind of buyer protection I believe, so maybe you could file a complaint and get some money back? I see he said he sold you the cams on the 13th, but continued posting until the 24th, maybe he died, but that still wouldn't make sense, 11 days since you paid and he stopped posting. And he's been on this board since 07 so it's not like he's a new member either. Maybe one of the mods can look up his user history get his ip address and release it to the authority's.
Hope you get your money back or better yet some satisfaction, screw the money.

Truly sad. One of the biggest reasons I love dealing with folks on forums like this one or with r/c airplanes (my other hobby) is that the people are usually very honest and fair people that have the same love for whatever you are discussing. I have never had one of these problems so far but I really don't know how I would react. Like others have said, I guess there is some security in PayPal. I have not had to file any claim thru them but I do always use it for the convenience.
