Sounds very odd - assuming you have a US PayPal account - first do you have a Personal or Business account ?? (we need a place a starting point ..)

You may have abused th family/friends option for payment.
How many goods/services payments have you made?

So either used to too much or transferring funds out of your coutnry is no longer an option.
After you make some sales the option may return or maybe wait a month and try again.
PayPal does not charge fees for friends/family transfers so they will be limited.
You'll probably need a service such as MoneyGram or Western Union now.
