Free shipping

[mccully_1989]

I recently purchased an item that said it was free shipping to my country.  However after I had paid for the product the seller contacted me telling me that I needed to pay for the shipping and he wanted me to send him a check in the mail.  At first I argued with him but he was very persistent and I was worried that I missed something but told him that I would only transfer money over paypal so that is what I did.  However I was just looking through my purchased items and went back onto the page for the item I bought and it does say free shipping to my country.  Did I get scammed and if so will I be able to get my money back?

Hi ..seller cannot request more than listing shows..

See terms and conditions. Should have advised seller to ship or refund. If refunded, appropriate feedback left.

2 payments nullifies buyer protection but if you just sent the extra without a connection to the item # , main payment is ok for BP.
