Well it's sad paypal has did it,  i've had my beefs before do mostly to No Seller protection,  as it is almost anyone can file a dispute and get there money **bleep**ing over the seller who in turn has to prove there casie while a buyer walks away free but paypal his did it with me,  Now they can hold my money until a buyer is happy?  So if i sell a $100 item  + shipping and it all goes into paypali not only have to ship it and put up the cost of shipping out of my pocket while but they can hold the money for 30 days?  i'm not rich person i can 't sit and front shipping costs for a month while waiting on it to be relised, the reason i used paypal was to get the money faster, soon as it cleared i could turn around and use my paypal card to ship the item.  I know buyers need a level of protection i've been on the other side before and had to ask form my money back but were does it end.  Just last summer someone bought a used item for me listed as is no returns the buyer had it for 23 days broke it and decided he wanted his money back,  i couldn't prove it had shipped so guess what they gave it to him.  And yet we are charged the Fee for getting our money,  if your going to let the buyer walk under a shield of we can do what we want then lets start making them pay a fee for sending money!! time for a little fair trade off,  how about if a buyer gets an item they must show just cause for a refund such as proof the item was broken or not as described,   Looks like it's good bye paypal for me and back to snail mail and money orders,  i'm not going to sell an item i know i can't be paid for for a good 30 days.  ...
