Default Buying things from the internet.

Okay here's the story. i bought some gsr blades from this guy through autotrader, and from this site, but he still has not sent me the wheels yet. But I sent my money through western union, and he would not respond to my emails for at least 5 business days. So if there are any advice what i should do, that would be great. =)

Through credit cards or PayPal you can dispute charges if the stuff doesn't show up. If you wire money through Western Union, it's gone.

Reason number one why I don't buy any import parts through private sales online or ebay. Only time I do is if I have known the person for a long time.

that happened to me with a rear sway bar or something. basically, the money is gone, unless you find other ways to track him down and send someone to his house.
