March 9, 20196 yr Trying to buy an item off a guy on CL. It's not expensive, but he seems a little flaky. If I PayPal him the money but he ends up not sending, can I get my money back from Paypal? I'd guess not, but just wanted to ask. I know with Ebay, the buyer has a lot of protection but perhaps not through just Paypal Thanks
March 9, 20196 yr Author Actually never mind. I found it on their site. Looks like a can get my money back if the seller can't prove that he sent.

March 13, 20196 yr I actually had someone renege on an item involving PayPal. I got lucky as hell after writing a sternly worded letter about hosing people that just want an honest deal, I at least had my money returned about 2 weeks later. It was purely on the goodness of their heart because I really didn't have any recourse, other than the fact that they had told me they owned a family restaurant in Houston. I guess I could have gone over there to raise hell, but who has time for that?
