God, I am sure you are still pissed off and rightly so.
Cast Iron just doesn't break.
There is no damn way you can have it fixed either!
There was a dispute and it took a month for ebay to get back with me today and that was an amiable problem solved between me and seller. He just wanted his posting fees back.
For those that do not know, PayPal is owned by ebay.
I do not use paypal on anything I buy or sell even though I have an account. I never give a credit card # to anyone I do not deal with at the shop I own.
It is like going shopping anywhere and not having the receipt to take back, you get screwed.
