Same problem I had.. Paypal and the way it attaches to you bank

account.
You are limited in options then



Yep....doin' it that way is the same as writing them a check. Once they cash
it, you're screwed.

"Paypal and the way it attaches to you bank account"....eewwwww...sounds
like a leech or something. This fact can't be stressed enough...never give
an unknown seller "no recourse" access to your money. Always keep that
Visa/MC ace up your sleeve when dealing with unknowns, and never, ever, let
them drag things out so long that your recourse options dwindle.

Is Paypal they still getting away with the "we provide bank-type services,
but are not held to the same rules and regulations that the Feds govern real
banks with" routine? I haven't heard anything on that front in a long time.

FWIW,
