I am absolutely astounded at what you, PayPal have just agreed on. I have recently sold three digital items on ebay, purchased by two buyers. Both of which had zero feedback. Items were traded via steam, and I as a precautionary measure, I had asked the buyers to send me an email in eBay with their steam id's and then add me, as well as confirm their eBay id's in steam chat. Not only did I take a screenshot of the chat logs, I have my steam trade history which shows the trades. Guess what? both raised disputes claiming non delivery of the goods!! Both, miraculously at the same time, on the same day. So, I immediately escalated the case, and uploaded the evidence. Waited a few days, and PayPal asked for the exact evidence that I had already given them, so, I duly sent them an email (jsut now acutally) and within 10mins, I get an automated reply 'After careful consideration, we have decided to refund the buyer!' What the **bleep**? Seriously, is it THAT EASY to abuse Buyer protection? Easy money. If all it takes is a new ebay/paypal account to scam seemingly anyone, I'm guessing there are a lot of rich folk out there. To say I'm annoyed is an understatement. I have 100% positive feedback, and have traded on ebay for over 10 years. Disgusted.
