All PAYPAL does is agree to give your money away as a buyer.
If you are THAT carefree -hey send me some will ya?

Seriously..

If you buy something..and you do not get it..PAYPAL is NOT on the hook.
If you happen to file within 45 days AND --here is the catch--AND the seller has enough funds..AND you win your claim...then MAYBE you will get a refund..

I bought a dvd. They never sent. I won the paypal case but since the seller had no money I was out 100 percent...excpet I paid by credit card..and did a chargeback.

I rented a condo..
The seller did not do what was needed.
Paypal would not accept the claim since it was over the 45 days.
They did not try to collect.
I filed with Bank of America..

They told me Paypal is a third party and I woudl have to go after the seller myself.

Paypal is a great way to PAY...but it sure is not a safe way to ensure you get what you paid for.

Sure I've transacted $39,000 with Paypal all told. Most went through fine.

As a SELLER I had zero problems..But other sellers have. Yeah after you sent the product PAYPAL says they dont think it is safe..

They dont check the accounts. They just take money.

Read the fine print. Dont expect them to cover you.

My friedn got some FAKE perfume. She had to get it appraised by a thiord party on their letterhead before the claim was accepted...then had to ship it ground (perfumeis hazardous). MY OPINION? she should have paid by credit card. I doubt if she gets her money back..

Paypal is a fraud. You are NOT getting what you think/
