Isn't step 1 contact the trader and explained what look like happened? I wouldn't be happy either but, you have to give the trader the opportunity to rectify the situation. In the case where they aren't willing to do anything, I would say the most recourse you have is giving bad feedback. Trades in my opinion, are totally based on honor and reputation because there isn't actual commerce happening and unless I am totally misinformed on the situation it would not be worth the headache trying to track down the trader and take some sort of legal action. In short, you were on the short end of a bad trade...
EDIT:
If I were the other trader I would have either offered you the same value to choose from the rest of my inventory, or I'd offer to paypal you the cash value. Is there something more you are looking for?
