How to tell if your purchase is under buyer's protection

Hey guys,

 

So i just purchased an item through Hardwareswap Reddit and the person created an invoice, and I accepted it, but I forgot to check if it was under buyer's protection or sent as family/freinds. How can you tell if you're protected? The item i bought was really expensive, so i just wanna make sure i'm protected and hope I didn't sent him money as family/friends.

 

-Thanks

A 'money request' is not a friends/family payment its a goods/services payment.
An 'invoice' is not a friends/family payment its a goods/services payment.
'Send money > goods/services' is not a friends/family payment its a goods/services payment.
A 'business account paypal.me' is not a friends/family payment its a goods/services payment.

A 'send money > friends/family payment is a friends/family payment.
A 'paypal.me personal account' is a friends/family payment.
