They simply do not have the time or ability to act as mediary going over says functionality in a script or anything similar. There has been numerous stories here before on this, and people have been shipping CDs with content and the script files on, just to have a shipping number and are in fact selling physical goods.

For amounts this large, I do not see why you do not go through a site built for this, like Freelancer.com.
It costs a bit more but your money are protected and milestones can be set, payout as work gets done, reviewed and approved.
Paypal never covered digital goods that I can remember.
If you downloaded it then paypal would not do any refund.

Too many people would download a product and then ask for a refund just so they
didn't have to pay.
So paypal has to do this; we the people did that to ourselves.
