she stated that she received your payment.

Subject: Watch out for Alexandra Carter (eBay seller)
Anybody done business with eBay seller Alexandra Carter (alexandracarter)?
She used a very neat trick on me.
I bought an HP 5036A Microprocessor Lab 8-Bit Computer from her
(eBay 160080545681) and paid for it with a money order which was
received on Feb. 3, 2006 (USPS tracking number 0103 8555 7499 5332
2386).
She then claimed to have sent the HP 5036A via USPS but has not
produced a tracking number despite the fact that I specifically had
asked for one.
Anyway, when I pressured her about the item, she filled a non-payment
dispute against me, to prevent me from posting negative feedback
on her.
This is despite the fact that on Feb 9, she sent me an eBay message
(sitting in my eBay messages folder) confirming receipt of payment.
I have been told that she has pulled this stunt before on another
buyer and only delivered the goods when he threatened filing a
USPS mail fraud complaint.
So watch out for Alexandra Carter despite her 98.6% feedback rating.
