Re: Bad PayPal experience?
To me PaPal is the best secure way exchange or send money. Use it constantly, never have an issue. If a site does not have PayPal I usually won't buy from them.

Re: Bad PayPal experience?
Been using Pay-pal as a buyer and a seller since 1999. I have never had one single problem. I even have a line of credit through Pay-pal as well. No issues at all.

Re: Bad PayPal experience?
The ones that have issues usually don't follow the proper complaint procedures or don't file in a timely manner or don't read the sale terms or have it sent to an unverified address do odd transactions that get their account frozen like kiting payments and moving money back and forth to quickly. I have never had paypal deny a claim or freeze my account or side with a unreasonable customer. As long as you go by their rules you'll be ok

Re: Bad PayPal experience?
i had an ebay seller really do me wrong and paypal was able to back me up and get my $220 returned. as mentioned above, you must follow their procedures, but as a buyer and seller using them, i have had nothing but positive experience for 5 years. money transfers take 3-5 days to my bank, and you can purchase directly from your account instantly. 2 thumbs up

Re: Bad PayPal experience?
Nothing but good things to say about PayPal. I had a unauthorized charge on my card in the UK (someone ordered a pizza on my dime)and within 12 hours the money was back in my account. It did take me over a month to get a new card but that was the card suppliers fault not PayPal.

Re: Bad PayPal experience?
Most of my Paypal transactions have been good. However, I sold a motor to a guy in NC and he wanted it shipped to his work instead of his home. I said 'no problem' ( BIG opps! ) Since his work was not his 'confirmed' address when he decided he didn't want it the motor (ie he sent me back his blown up, tore apart one) Paypal gave him the money back... I couldn't fight it because I hadn't because I didn't send the motor to his home 'confirmed' address.
Since then I only take Paypal on small purchases or as a deposit on larger ones. I also always send the items to 'confirmed' addresses only. If the buyer wants the item redirected somewhere else, that all on them. |

Re: Bad PayPal experience?
Good point and don't ever make a substitution of an item or add or subtract items from the sale even when the customer requests it. The item has to sell as listed.

Re: Bad PayPal experience?
I once bought 2 things from the same seller a day apart. I received one of them but never got the other. Filed a claim with paypal and the seller sent them the shipping info for the item I received and they found in his favor. Many emails explaining it was a different transaction got me no where. I finally gave up as it was only a $10 item but still pi$$ed me off.
