Contraptioneer,
The information provided is correct in what the available functionality of PayPal in South Africa is like. All South African PayPal accounts can make international and purchase payments.
In regards to South African law, PayPal complies with all applicable regulations and laws. We wouldn't be able to provide you legal advice or interpretations of current law - for that portion, you may want to see an attorney versed in international or South African regulations.
Thanks,
Adrian
