Paypal does a poor job when it comes to fraud issues. I got ripped off when I bought a dash cam that was too good to be true. PP sided with the merchant but when I presented the info to my Discover card, they issued a prompt refund.
Since Paypal and Fleabay are one and the same, I'm not exactly surprised.

Paypal and Ebay are no longer together they parted ways several years ago.
Decades ago I worked for a used car company. On paper, they were two separate companies; use cars and finance. They paid each other and wrote it off on their taxes.

In reality? One and the same company. Even operated under the same roof. Very old trick. Paypal and Fleabay are only different on paper. But they are the same company. Policies and needs are shaped by the needs of one.

History and Separation
    • Past Ownership: eBay bought PayPal in 2002 and used it as their primary payment tool for over a decade.
    • The Split: eBay officially spun off PayPal into its own publicly traded company in July 2015. [1, 2]

Even back then people were still exclusively locked into using PayPunk. It was my assumption that everyone on FleaBay was still locked into using PayPunk but assuming AI is correct, this may have changed roughly five years ago. Personally quit dealing with FleaBay over a decade ago due to ~90% return rates and seller games. (they're the reason I quit repairing small electronics -- volume sellers figured out it was cheaper to use their customers to test products they acquired)

You can still pay for stuff on eBay using PayPal, but all seller accounts (even individuals just selling their old crap) go direct to bank account. It’s not possible to get your money through PayPal anymore. I guess the rationale is that eBay no longer has to pay PayPal or credit card transaction fees on both ends because they’re just using direct deposit and keeping the selling fees

Used it to pull the LO206 kart to the track. This little trailer is about to get an overhaul. New decking, new paint and smaller tires so it tows flatter behind the cars. I originally built it to be towed behind Jeeps so the tires and deckheight were built around that.
