I will post the screenshots of our conversations following this post. After he requested a payment from Paypal as a gift due to me not being a repped user. I Submitted it and he refused to accept it since it didnt clearly state it was a gift. He refunded THAT payment. I proceeded to make another payment at his request, he accepted it after a screenshot proving it was a gift payment and has not spoken to me since. This was the 14th of August.
