I have never had a bad experience with an eBay seller; I even bought a car on eBay and it was the best car buying experience I’d had in years.
The only problems I have ever had have been with PayPal charging twice for the same transaction and then being completely unresponsive about it. I worked it out with the seller who was great but I don’t think I’ll be using PayPal anymore.
Welcome to an ever-growing list of people who have been screwed around by PayPal.
