A friend of mine bid and won a Sibe Gorman divers helmet on Ebay. The winning bid was £1300 and my friend made the payment, as requested, through paypal using his Visa card.
The seller said it would take up to 5 weeks to arrive, as it was being shipped from Australia to the UK. Well 5 weeks went past and no helmet. The seller refused to answer emails. So my friend called paypal and asked for a refund. The warned him not to charge back on his card, and the very next day froze his account!
Well he called Visa, who gave him the money back. So much for Paypal protecting the buyer.
It has been said a thousand times on here. Don't leave any money on your Paypal account, and they will shit on you sooner or later.
