I admit I did have the intention of scamming him yet I added him back after the trade and I agreed to send him 1.5$ all said and done probably about a week later. I felt really guilty about what I did especially because the item was worth so much. I have no receipt of sending the money because that paypal would eventually get deactivated due to be being underage.

I need to reword that. When I messaged him I did have the intention of doing a completely fair trade yet after the trade was accepted I was extremely tempted. I didn't message him or send him offers with the intention of scamming him.

I will provide screenshots of my inventory history later today, I just took a quick glance and there were many trades made in the specified timeframe so just keep in mind there will be many screenshots. Also this was almost 5 years ago, I have no evidence of the transaction being made, I can't even remember the email associated with that paypal, or the chat messages. I unblocked him via steam and messaged him through there regarding repayment. Yes, it was $1500, and if I remember correctly he was just happy that I was able to pay him anything at all, because he was extremely bummed about the situation. I told him I didn't have the knife anymore and offered $1500.

.

The original agreement was $2000 but as I said after I added him back we both agreed on $1500. I don't owe him $500 more he agreed with and was totally acceptable with receiving $1500.

Sorry I didn't make that clear I just reviewed it. After I added him back we both agreed on $1500. It wasn't like I said take it or leave it.

Ok sure, anything else I'd be happy to provide if available.

Ok, thanks for the update

No I didn't de-activate my paypal account, they asked for proof to identify myself and due to the information I sent them they deleted my account because I was underage. And when I was repaying them I obviously didn't have these rules in mind as I wasn't even aware of my steamrep until recently. I don't believe it's fair that if need be I'd need to provide another form of repayment.

I'm not sure how else I'm able to prove this. I will try contacting paypal and see if they're able to re-instate the account. even if im not able to I find it completely unfair that the victim and I agreed on an amount that I would be for compensation yet I still receive the same repercussions as if I hadn't done so.

As I was about to message them to re-instate the account I came across this:
