He's not alone, eBay's own forum is filled with complaints: http://forums.ebay.com/db2/forum/Paypal/97 and there are numerous websites dedicated to PayPal horror stories telling of just such events: http://www.aboutpaypal.org/forums/paypal-horror-stories/ http://www.paypalwarning.com/ http://www.screw-paypal.com/horror_stories/horror_stories.html http://www.paypalsucks.com/ Hence why I do not keep any funds in my account nor keep my bank account associated with my PayPal account. Be careful when you trust PayPal, that's all I have to say about this. -- Best Regards, John Musbach
