So I guess you guys only buy new things then? I don't see how buying used parts makes one cheap. I really don't see the point in paying new price to just try out a pedal I may or may not like.
I didn't pay any attention to the sellers location because I've not generally had an issue with purchases on eBay. The price was on par with other completed auctions, in fact the morning that I won it I was kinda regretting my last bid and not just letting the other bidder take it.

Thanks for the helpful responses though. I guess I'm stuck waiting out the delivery period. Who knows, maybe the seller did send it before he/she got suspended . Fortunately I did use a credit card through PayPal so I've got plenty of paths to take it seems.
