Sent payment for item, but seller now refuses to send it

[Zigner]

i guess i still don't understand why this situation doesn't qualify as one of the exceptions that i posted above? in those exceptions, CA has jurisdiction over residents and businesses in other states.

this is both a case of a breach contract and problem with a consumer purchase. just saying i can't sue in another state doesn't explain why i can't (sorry if i'm being thick headed, but no one has actually said why in my case, and i do understand in most cases what you all are saying is true, but this is an exception).

From YOUR post:


# Consumer purchase (claim by buyer) — An action also can be filed in localities (1), (2), or (3) immediately above by the consumer against a business firm that provided the consumer with goods, consumer services, or consumer credit. An action also can be filed by the consumer in any of those locations if the suit is based on a purchase that results from an unsolicited telephone call made by the seller to the buyer (including a situation where a buyer responds by a telephone call or electronic transmission).

ok, i'm an idiot...i missed that...so a buyer is SOL when the seller is out of state and screws you....we have a ****ed up system here......seeing how easy it is to avoid the law i should have turned to a life of crime instead of college...thanks for the advice
