Another Paypal ripped me off thread

[bonesninja 5,000+ posts]

Paypal blows.....not only did they rip me off to the tune of $778, but when trying to pay a negative balance, they only accept checks or M.O.'s.

Fegs .... heres a gay email they sent me after i tried to clear it up because they are seriously hampering my online business transactions

Why do you have a negative balance anyways.

because i had about $660 in there and they took $770ish leaving me with negative balance after a scammer jacked me and they sided with him even though it was his first transaction (i had 90+) and he said i sent him an empty box

Darn man that sucks. Doing business online is becoming so sketchy. Now not only do you have to worry about being scammed buying stuff but even selling too. Good luck

Yes, i've had over a 100 transactions on here, 200 on ebay, and 90+ on paypal without a hitch.....then along comes this queer with no transactions--says i didn't ship and not only am i out the items, i'm out $770 plus a serious hampering in my ability to do business on these boards

after kent and now you i doubt i will accept PP unless its from someone ive dealt with in the past possibly.

cashiers/bank check or MO only from now on

with the amount of money PP makes in fees you would think that they would back a seller a little better.

I feel you Bones, been in the same situation with paypal on the first transaction I had with them. After the 2nd time I had it and said never again dealing with paypal, yet people still want to deal only with them when I sell things and yeah I have lost transactions because I don't deal with them, but in the end I either get to keep my shit and not get screwed or wait on the next person that deals with me on a MO. Usually takes a little more time to sell, but I almost always get rid of it.

Might want to try doing it that way from now on Bones. I got screwed out of over 1000 smacks total because of them assholes. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif
