Glad I don't have a balance.    Buyer disputed charges from paypal with his credit card company.  I sold something as-is on ebay in October.  This guy wanted his money back because he wasn't happy with the used item he bought.  Said he "just opened the package" 3 months later (in January).  He couldn't dispute with eBay or PayPal because it was so old, so he disputed the charge on his card.   PayPal supposedly answered the dispute for me.  I had pictures of the items condition, proof of delivery, and a copy of the eBay listing (even though it was purged).  The item was never returned to me, yet his (Canadian) credit card company still sided with him (so surprised).   So i'm done with paypal and I am NOT paying the balance... they can eat it.  I've already notified MY card company that I will be disputing any charges by PayPal to MY card.   If they turn it over to a collection agency, i will file suit in small claims court. ...

Is seller protection really non-existant?   I sold something via eBay on Oct 10, 2014.  In JANUARY 2015, the buyer contacted me through ebay messaging and wanted his money back... 3 Months later.   Item was sold used in good condition.  Three months later it was no longer in good condition.  He couldn't dispute through eBay or PayPal, so he disputed via his credit card company.    PayPal has debited my account, even after i provided them with pictures and description of the item BEFORE the sale.  Is there no limit on how much time can pass before someone can dispute the purchase of a USED item.   I believe I'm finished with PayPal. ...
