1880 Western Wear Gwen Hansen Lying, scaming and fraudulent cheats Internet

I am totally devastated that I have been ripped off by a company that seemed to be a legal business that is registered with PayPal and that the "owner" Gwen Hansen could be such a devious and lying cheat.
My journey began on the 11th of October 2011 when I searched the internet for a clothing store where I could purchase a fringed leather shirt. I ride a Harley and have been looking for this type of shirt and because it is an American traditional item, I searched for American stores. I came across 1880 Western Wear and browsing through their site I found what I was looking for. I made contact immediately with them and received a response from Gwen Hansen. She sent me a size chart, communicated regularly with me and eventually we agreed on my size and payment of $659 for this Deer Skin customized shirt.
I paid for this on the 17th of October 2011 through PayPal. 2min later once I had made the payment I received confirmation from Paypal that my transaction was finalised.
I phoned Gwen (i have trouble mentioning her name as I would prefer to call her cheat), and told her that I have transferred the money and when could I expect my shirt to be delivered to my New York Aramex post box. She said it would take three weeks.
When three weeks had passed and I had not received a tracking number that she promised to send me, I emailed her and she said that she had been sick with flu for a week and would get onto finishing the shirt and would post within a week. Well when that time line had passed and I heard nothing I contacted her again. This time the excuse was that it was Thanks Giving and no postage takes place during this time. Then the next email that I received was that the shirt had been posted on the 29th of November 2011 and that it would take 5 to 7 days to reach New York. I have not received my shirt to date, have not been able to make contact with her, she has not reponded to my emails and I now know that I am just another victim of a very lucrative scam that is making these cheats very wealthy, considering that they have been doing this for years. For info her personal cell number is 509 6801058. Please don't ever consider engaging transactions with her or her so called scam company
