I am sick of dealing and trying to get a reply with only a 20% success rate, plus every time I ask him to confirm his details he avoids the question... Now I'm £80 out of pocket but have learnt my lesson but I don't want any one else getting caught out by this guy!

Yeah I remember pm'ing you rather early in all this when I payed the seller. Never had a problem buying/selling with direct payments of forums till this scenario happened. You live and learn, just rather warn others so they don't make the same mistake.
