sorry to hijack to topic, but i have a question about paypal as well. what happens if i buy from a private party and i send the payment but they don't ship the product? i've never used paypal so i was just wanting to find out how it works.

ALWAYS use a credit card.. NEVER use direct transfer from a bank account.....

paypal doesn't give a shit about fraudulent purchases....

If you use a credit card.. you can dispute the charge and they will look into it and not pay paypal....

Here's what just happened to a recent paypal transaction on my account:

- Buyer pays me
- Paypal clears it and it adds to my account
- A week later - Paypal says OH Hey - the buyers bank account is no good and it has a track record for fraudulent activity.
- Paypal then TAKES THE MONEY OUT OF MY ACCOUNT

That has never happened before. I figure once they credit you the payment, the money is yours. What the HELL!?!?!

Sorry for hijacking the hijack.
