Thank you for your kind words, interest and support.
This is very sad. I have been searching so long for a 61 Chrysler. A wagon was at the top of my wish list, but so hard to find that I expanded my search to letter cars and then saw this beautiful Windsor. Not only did I lose out of this rare car at a good price, but I was scammed out of $1,000 and my home seriously damaged days later by hurricane Sandy. We were without heat and power for two weeks.
I am now looking to sell my 25 year collection of beautiful golden age jukeboxes, radios, phonographs, nickelodeons and other collectibles to help pay for the damages that national flood insurance does not cover and so I do not have to kill myself each storm threat in moving these beautiful and heavy machines upstairs.
None of those machines suffered any damage as all were moved to a higher floor the day before the flood.
Perhaps a fellow club members may be interested in these machines to buy or trade for another car and I can forward photos to anyone interested.
Please call or email me for further information and check out the articles of my collection on the links to my website below.

p.s. my family has had Labradors as pets for generations as well as retired racing greyhounds and exotic parrots.
It was extra effort and concern to protect then too during this disaster.

I took a look at the auction, and can offer a couple of observations.
First, it was a beautiful car--I understand your disappointment. Second,
I'm assuming the seller backed out on the deal because you did not pay in
full within 3 days? If so, and considering you were dealing with Sandy,
that's really awful. And then, he did not return your deposit? Shameful.
I note the guy's feedback indicates lots and lots of well-satisfied
customers, yet some extremely dissatisfied ones too. What's interesting to me is
that the auction listing indicates this is a private seller, he's owned
this car for a long time, and was involved in all aspects of the restoration.
Yet his feedback screams he is a dealer, as he has sold scores of cars.
You might try a complaint with the CA licensing board to try to get your
deposit refunded.
Finally, how do you fund your PayPal account? If it's by credit card, you
might try disputing the charge with your credit card company. If they
side with you, they will do a chargeback via PayPal to the seller. We did
this a few years back on a $6,000 car which was completely misrepresented.
Our credit card company (AmEx) stood by us and we got the entire amount
refunded. It took an eight-page letter documenting everything, but in the end
it was worth it. Anyway, you might try it. BTW, ebay and PayPal were
useless in providing any help, just as they apparently were with you.
I think many of us have sympathy for people like you who had to weather
this terrible storm, and are particularly sorry that it appears you are
getting taken advantage of to boot.

Greetings from Long Island, New York to my fellow Chrysler fans:
I am living in a disaster area following hurricane Sandy and the nor
easter that followed without utilities for two weeks!
Power and phones were not restored until last Sunday. This is worse than
Katrina in many regards.
To make things worse, just following the storms that decimated the coastal
areas of NY, NJ and the northeast,
I was beat by the seller (within days of the hurricane) of the 61 Chrysler
Windsor noted in the eBay link above as well as my $1,000 paypal deposit.
He had the nerve to demand thousands over my winning bid by wire transfer
or to cancel the auction.
Thereafter this mutt canceled the sale and failed to return my deposit or
to return any calls or emails.
This experience with eBay and paypal is a disgrace and their so-called
$50,000 buyer protection is a farce as they failed to refund my money despite
all of their ads and assurances posted throughout those sites.
My faith in eBay is broken and I warn my fellow collectors to be very
cautious with on line purchases and out-of-state sellers.
Shame on the degenerate seller / dealer that would scam a fellow American,
especially in the wake of this disaster that substantially destroyed my
home and upset my business for many months to come. Best regards to the rest
of you who give aid to fellow honest collectors.
