This involves Texas law, I guess: I initiated a purchase online for $500 on ebay, no longer wanted it, and asked for a refund which the seller is not responding to. I live in TX, he lives in Maine, so can I sue him in a Texas court or will I have to travel to his state to sue him in a small claims court?
