Ebay charges $25 for a dispute, paypal never used to(unless they just recently changed it). In fact, they will cover some items up to $1,000.
ONLY use a CC to pay with paypal and NEVER use your available funds in there(withdraw them and use a cc). After worrying about not receiving a $2,000 item I bought I read everything on their site. Unless it specifically says it is covered up to $1,000 on the auction... it's not covered at all. You only have 30 days to do a chargeback on their site. Yes, a credit card will protect you, paypal and ebay will not. Lucky for me the seller was honest and I received my item but I about had a heart attack for a day. I always thought paypal was secure but it's not. |
