Well I don't know how to help you with this problem, I surely appreciate you posting this question. I am selling a high-end vacuum online, and something about the buyer seems fishy to me. Just like you, i would have taken it to the bank, and waited for it to clear, and most likely would have withdrawn the money, and spent it. But now i know to wait a few days. While it doesn't seem that you will likely get your money back, you can rest maybe a little easier knowing you've helped others.
