What are the advantages of using paypal for purchasing of eBay

Disadvantages, no one to speak to if you have a problem, chargebacks from people who buy from you, purchases no real big problems.

But with paypal who to you speak to if a problem comes up? NO ONE. They control everything about there service not you.

He asked for advantages? :o

I think it's actually more secure than some other methods of transfer. They have protection policies in place if there is a problem, which backs onto your credit card's policy if you use credit card through paypal. It also allows you to buy things without handing over your credit card details. This allows a degree of anonymity to be kept.

What do u mean by charge backs, and what sort of problems would occur

I know and I quote (purchases no real big problems.), but also gave the othe side of the coin if he choose to sell on eBay. Been there and done that. That is why I don't sell on eBay anymore. To many chargebacks and no help from either eBay or paypal.

Someone buy something from you and does't like it, file a dispute and paypal refund the money to them even without find out what the problem is.

Do you get your product back, and what if they broke it or they caused the problem


By the way thanks capuchin

That's interesting mr. yet, my mum has sold hundreds of items on eBay and never had a chargeback.

I use Ebay a lot and that's ALL I accept for payment.
I find some simple Good Customer service clears up most problems ;)

Everything I ever sold on eBay had a money back guarantee, some people did return the items, some just kept them and filed a dispute the sale got their money back also. I am not saying everyone is like that, but 8 times I was burnt. I disputed their claims and eBay and papypal did nothing.

So I don't sell on eBay anymore. I will still pruchase, but not sell.

OK so using paypal=gd thing (to buy that is)

I use Ebay alot and that's ALL I accept for payment.

I offer everything with money back guarantee, no questions asked, just send it back.
