Hello everyone, A bit of context, I am based in Slovakia and want to conduct a transaction with an individual that is based in the US. I got recommended Paypal goods and services for this trade to ensure that both parties are protected. Given this is my first time utilizing this payment method I would like to ask a few questions to ensure my transaction goes smoothly and is protected. 1. Does the buyer protection apply even if I am sending a payment under the goods and services to an account that is registered under personal email and it is not a business entity? 2. In case of the item arrives not being as described, or not arriving at all, how do I approach the situation when requesting refund, if our deal has been arranged in a private conversation on the internet and not through a third-party platform like Ebay, Grailed? (and in such a case is the likelihood of me receiving a refund unlikely given it has not been organized by authorized platform?) 3. Does it matter in any way whether the funds are sent from paypal balance or the debit card? Any other advice/recommendations are appreciated, Thank you for help in advance.
