paypal And Debt Agencies?

I think in any situation it is a good idea to turn the situation around and see what you would think then. If you were the buyer who had started a dispute with Paypal, returned the item to the seller and then had Paypal chargeback in your favour you would probably be aggrieved if the money was not returned to you.

You cannot set down conditions in your Ebay auctions that are in conflict with the terms and conditions you agreed to when you joined Ebay.

It will cost a great deal more than £25 if they do decide to take you to court; I would pay up now and start 2007 without possible bailiff visits or court fees hanging over you.

Isn't there a minimum amount which you must exceed before you can take someone to court???

Paypal are mostly on the buyers side. If you sell an item and put you don't do refunds in your listing as i did, paypal will still refund them and deduct your account if the buyer kicks up a fuss about it.

I know longer accept paypal and never will. Scammers love paypal, they buy an item, pay by PP, then say they never received the item, paypal refunds them and the scammer has his money back plus the missing item :rolleyes:

I have read through paypalsucks.com, interesting reading

I will only pay up if a court asks me to because i feel as a seller i did nothing wrong in my ebay listing because i stated i don't do refunds The TV was working, he obviously lives in a poor aerial reception area, thats not my fault.

You can actually change your primary contact details on paypal.

If you changed them to a different address would that make paypal send all their threatening letters to the new address?

It would probably cost paypal more money to retrieve the money through the courts, I seriously doubt they will take it further than a few letters.

What if you post the TV to Paypal, or to the debt collection agency? It's worth £25, presumably that would settle the debt?

NB I'm just being flippant - I have no idea if this would legally resolve the issue.
