Scam On Ebay! Received second chance offer on eBay, paid him, never received Playstation

I bid on sealover1000's playstation 3 but didn't win. I received a second chance offer from him saying I could pay him and get the PS3. I was pretty excited but stupidly I had not read up on eBay's policy on using personal checks for payment. Unfortunately, I sent the personal check to a "Terry Smith" a day after without investigating it more. I hadn't received a tracking number or any e-mails for about a week and I was growing suspicious. About a week and a half later he emailed me back 3 times with different excuses like his roommate shipped it out but shipped it to the wrong address. He then said he was having it shipped to me. It is about 1 month later and I still haven't received anything. I plan on going to the local Police department tomorrow and asking their advice on the matter. I've read several other posts about people paying "Terry Smith" and not receiving anything. I hope this sorry excuse for human flesh gets caught. I'm getting ready to get married and so I didn't have much money to begin with but I was going to use the PS3 as our blu-ray player till this "Terry Smith" ripped me off... Be very aware and don't send a personal check like I did. Don't even use a money order. Use Paypal, and no I'm not promoting it but it helps to get your money back if someone is ripping you off.
