I have received the refund, and also guided instaBoost through proper ebay/paypal cancellation process.
It is unfortunate that instaBoost did not trust me to send the BTC, but I completely understand that.
Hopefully in this process instaBoost at least learned something about the ebay process, and I am glad I could help him in this regard - so that he can get the fees back.
All is well.
Also let me put in few add words:
Initially I did offer him paypal gift - and I did that since I did put in my trust in him. However, he failed to realize that, and insisted me doing regular transaction - which is completely reversible. instaBoost - here is another lesson for you - do not choose this path - you could not trust me to send the BTC, but you wanted the regular PP even with fees. Think about how incorrect this is.
In any case, instaBoost has his logo design store - he is new to the community like me, but yes I did trust him. He also mentioned that the 21-25 day shipping is a mistake on his part. He is still learning.
I sincerely thank everyone watching this thread, and your valuable comments. Although with this episode, instaBoost did not find any reason to trust me, I on the contrary did not find anything to distrust him. Yes, there were bare minimum protection, like not giving +ve ebay feedback before I receive the BTC (deliverables), but that is incorrect to do in any case before I receive what I am supposed to.
instaBoost - again - do not do a regular PP transaction if you do not trust the person such that you will not deliver BTC you have sold :-) Just a friendly advice, a real scammer would have happily waited till April 16, and then chargeback.
Best wishes to all.
On to my search for BTC.
Please tell me you did not send as a gift.
He did not - even though he offered the OP declined and wished to do it through ebay.
So either the OP is a really bad scammer or being honest with the 30 day clearance for new seller and trying to cover his own back I guess.
No, I did not. Please hold on to the speculations.
Projects - I am not sure what I am trying to cover, but thanks for your comments. I guess you had already checked me out about the China goldfish transaction - even though we could not come to terms - so even after that you think I am a scammer ?
That is not what I said.
I was not directing my post at you... I did not realise you made the thread and not Insta - I apologise but still should be clear from what I wrote who I meant.
I have absoutely no reason to distrust you.
People relax... I've already issued a refund. This is the exact reason I didn't want paypal in the first place. Waiting on OP to accept cancellation. Hope all is well

Exactly... Same here with that thought

Definately do not leave feedback before you receive else you will not be able to dispute the transaction.
If he did send you the BTC now and you left positive feedback the funds would be available immediately - I think that would be the best course of action, or a refund.

Yes, I know. Thanks for your input.

instaBoost has informed me that his PP transaction clearance will appear on 4/16, and not the 3 days as agreed upon before. This will not work for me, as I am trying to collect BTC for ASIC purchase and ASICMINER share purchase, and a month delay will be too late.
So, I have given option to either trust me and send BTC now, with me publicly announcing this, OR cancel transaction an return money.
Will update based on what he chooses.
He is a new seller, and based on latest PM, he has decided to cancel. Problem is that he wanted me to leave early feedback (before receiving BTC), which I do not want to do. I have also noticed that he has mentioned extended delivery time 21-25 days, which does not make sense for this kind of transaction, I have asked him why.
He has decided not to put trust one me, and not send BTC - which is fine. I am waiting for refund.
In any case, he said he will cancel transaction. So, will update again.
He is a new seller, payment will be on hold until 30 days OR the buyer leaves positive feedback.
If he sends the BTC to shibaji now and shibaji leaves positive feedback funds will be available immediately for use/withdrawal.

Admins please make sure OP gets his trade
It isn't the admin (or mods) job to ensure the OP gets his trade. It is the OP job and for the record it is highly likely the OP will get nothing. False ebay listing by a brand new seller for a huge sum of money ... not to hard to see where this is going.
I did go through this for two reasons:
1. First is of course because I needed BTC
2. Want to gain trust, and prove that I can do safe PP transaction - I have done that with BCB - but through PP gift.
If things do not work out, this will serve as a log. I do not held anyone responsible for any bad outcome, other than the involved parties. I thank all the witnesses.
Thanks.
I agree. I wanted to build my rep on ebay as well and saw this as the best way... You need not worry mate, All I need to see is the funds clear and I'll send your coins immediately exactly like we spoke about.

This is for a public declaration that I have purchased 30 BTC through ebay/paypal from instaBoost for usd 2050 (based on agreed upon pricing decided yesterday (Mar 23, 2013). Here is the ebay purchase link : http://www.ebay.com/itm/140940231656
My BTC payment address is 1G4FWK6U3qQb2ikgdcYZovLzyQ7xmWotBP , where instaBoost will transfer the bitcoins once the transaction settles.
I am yet to receive the BTC , when I do, I will update the thread. I will also invite instaBoost to update the thread on transaction details.
