I got shafted by an Ebay buyer and then by PAYPAL- the buyer returned a perfectly functional camera he bought from me in an Ebay auction that clearly stated "all sales final." 2 months later the buyer returns it, claims I sold him a faulty camera, and Paypal doesn't ask to see any proof - just buys the guy's story and racks up the total under my account and freezes my account.
I closed my Ebay account (118 transactions with 100% good feedback) and will be closing my Paypal account as soon as the balance is zero. Then I will encourage everyone I know to avoid Paypal at all costs. If you are an Ebayer, it is getting harder to find auctions that don't force the buyer and seller to use Paypal - and since Paypal is owned by the same sheisters that run Ebay, is it any wonder? After this headache is over, I'm done with the both of them. And anyway, there aren't many good bargains out on Ebay anymore anyway - just shop from reputable dealers - much nicer experience.
