Sorry for jumping in, I don't have dog in this race, but I hate to see fellow E60 drivers get hosed.
I think your protection lies in avoiding Paypal. Everyone burned here by this person, and QuadM, appeared to be using Paypal. If the vendor is not legit enough to get a real merchant Credit Card account, look elsewhere. (there are rare exceptions)
I've never had an issue getting a credit back on my card for products never delivered.
Something I'm missing?

If they don't have a real merchant cc account, they're not serious about their business.

well Detto was nice enough to reply to my email and tell me that he will not give me a partial refund for the missing parts, he said Paul will contact me about this situation buy I haven't heard anything for the past 4 days. I got a rear bumper that I can't install because I don't have the necessary parts to do so. What a joke.

This is beyond civil or criminal legal action. Perhaps Detto needs an up close and personal visit

Is somebody taking care on the situation, or are we just making this list for the fun of it?
Any legal actions taken yet?
