Dispute: @strider76 v. @DigitalSEOZone

Hello, I'm initiating a dispute against DigitalSEOZone in order to get my $500 back.

DigitalSEOZone promised me 2 GMBs for $500. I paid the $500 on 1/3. He stalled/did nothing for a few weeks and then subsequently claimed on 2/1 it couldn't be done for no specific reason. At this point he agreed to send me a refund for $500. After that, he stalled for a few days and then went dark on 2/4. I informed him on 2/7 that I was initiating a dispute on BHW and that he had 8 hours to respond. At this point he has not responded and I'm submitting this dispute.
