Just contact the seller and tell him about your concerns?
And of course, escrow.
I did so and until now there is, surprise surprise, no answer. I think the case is clearly.
Did you do some cheap buys on ebay to "gain trust" before you bought something you actually wanted?
Yes, actually i did it that way.
The US customer of yours might turn out to be a n-word, too.

It seems you suffer from a overdose of rage against the machine.
(great band in the old days, but audioslave is fine too)
(sorry, but really: what's your problem?)
In case you are new to the internet:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nigerian_scam I would report any person that asked me to pay out of escrow before receiving the good as a scammer and you deserve to be marked a scammer for that.
In relation to the link above, i think my concerns are legitimate.
I also sent him a link to my profile from another electronic marketplace with 100% positive feedback.
He could send me a message there for verification...
Anyway, as it seems (no answer), it was a scammer and i won't explain this furthermore.
Be a angry kid elsewhere.
