PayPal = Awful for Seller; Linkage to EBay is Huge Problem
In Response To: Argh! Paypal trouble. ()

some months ago, I read PayPal's "fine print" / legalese regarding the seller's position, in a PayPal transaction . . . the quick summary is that, in an effort to provide Buyer Protection, they place the seller in an awful position.

the bigger problem, however, is the EBay requirement for EBay sellers to accept PayPal. People try some creative ways around this requirement, but it is a huge problem for sellers of high-dollar items.
