Problem with ebay seller zlshop

Here is the problem I bought a mp3/mp4 player from ebay the guys seller name is zlshop or pdeal.com from Gainesville florida. It was a 2G and I think it actually was because it had a samsung K9LAGO8UOM memory chip.

I bought it on Nov.19 recieved it on Dec.2 I sent him a money order and it all went well till the player crashed after one day of use,so i contacted him and told him the problem, and he said sent it back and he would replace it that was Dec.11, so i boxed it up last night and sent it to him this morning then i get home and check my emails to find he has filed a non payment claim against me i paid him with a U.S. Poastal service money order so I know it was good i just dont know why he would wait till now to file it.

I sent him a email asking why he filed it.
I still have the emails he sent me with the tracking number and the email saying send it back and he would replace it.

My question is what should I do seeing as i only have a few days to resolve this before ebay acts on it. If he still goes through with the claim I would HIGHLY recomend NOBODY buy anything from him. I will keep you all informed how this turns out, but any ideas on how to handle this is welcome.

Sorry it's been awhile since i have been on here but zlshop did make it good and sent me a new player and it has worked just fine for three weeks now.
I would also like to add that it is a true 2G player and not a hack so i would say he is a good seller.
The non payment dispute was a mistake i guess because he retrackted the claim the next day when i emailed him about it.

red355,

Was your original a hacked player?
Did the seller tell you buy it was like that?
I mean he might do good now for you but what happens if it happens to someone else? That's what we got to watch out for I guess.

No the first one was not a hacked player and the one he sent me to replace the first one was not hacked so i would say he is not lying but you never know he did replace it with no problems after he retracted the non payment claim witch i still don't know why he did that but all in all i would say he treated me fine and it seems to work just fine.

Know i'm just waiting for a tool to extract the 9.0.48 and 9.0.50 firmware so i can post it here incase someone else needs it for a dead player .

Thanks so much for all who have put this site together it has helped me so much in what to look for to not get ripped off and how to use my player to it full potetial
