Legal Question in Consumer Law in California

small claims questions.

Hi,

I ordered a product from a private that i paid through paypal a month and a

half ago.

I live in California and he lives in Washington state.

I still have to receive the product and he keeps on telling me he can't afford

to send the product to me because he's ''broke'', when i specifically added

money for shipping and handling.

I've been thinking to direct appeal to the small claims court, since the value is

less than 5000$, but i'd like to know if I have to do it here in california or in

washington state.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Take care,

R.

Probably in Washington State. It is unfortunate that there are people out there like that--in the future, always get references before buying anything over the internet.
