Whether you can get law enforcement to help in a situation like this depends to a great extent where you live and whether you have friends within the police department. Sounds to me like you're advising s-t into wasting time on a frustrating run-around.

So, you sent the new item to Amazon for fulfillment and then Amazon shipped it. Is there a possibility that Amazon accidentally shipped the wrong item? Like maybe yours was sitting on a shelf next to an old one and they got mixed up. ???
I asked Amazon about this and they said they put each seller items in separate bins, so they can't get mixed up with items from other sellers. what exactly happens in their warehouse is hard to tell from outside.

Today's Chicago Tribune carries a Problem Solver column about a woman who sold an item through Amazon. Buyer then claimed it was damaged and got her money refunded, but Amazon told her she wasn't obligated to return the item to seller. Seller is now out the item and the payment, and Amazon refuses to discuss the matter with her or the Problem Solver.

I will try to find the article when i get home tonight. After selling about 400-500 items on Amazon over the past year, I start to have doubts about long term strategy. Seems like Amazon will side with the buyers in many of these cases

Can you ask Amazon if he has a history of doing this?

eBay's the same way. One of the many reasons I stopped selling on eBay years ago. I had a projector for sale, and some numbnuts bid it up, as well as several other projectors. He never paid me, or any of the other sellers. He did, however, leave nasty feedback saying the projector was "broken". Took a long time to get that negative feedback taken away.
