    Thanks for the heads up.

    But since you are good at quoting. Go to the rules section, and quote the rule where it states DP doesn't get involved in disputes.

    I think desperrado is just giving other DP members and alert and not asking for dispute resolution.

    desperrado, thanks for the warning...

    i don't see where he is asking for DP to intercede, do you?
    i think he's just giving a head up to folks.

    contact your payment processor and see about a charge back.
