[Milsurplus] Paypal Farce

[Military1944 at aol.com]

Well, seems all the hype Paypal and Ebay spout about themselves is pure  
bunkum. 
 
Having received an item, paid for using Paypal, which turned out to be not  
as advertised I made a claim. 
 
Paypals reply:  
 
Our investigation into the following transaction is complete. As stated  in
our User Agreement, the claims process only applies to the delivery  of
goods. It does not apply to complaints about the attributes or quality  of
goods received. Therefore, we are unable to reverse this transaction  or
issue a refund. 


So, apparently, Paypal are quite happy to give your money away for any  
rubbish, whatever it is, so long as you receive it.  Now, I don't know  about you 
but that's what I call 'Protection'!!. 
 
I intend taking the matter to the UK Trading Standards. I suggest anyone  
else (in the UK) does the same and those in other countries contact their  
consumer agencies. 
 
The seller?, a chap in Mornington Peninsula, Victoria,  Australia.   BEWARE. 
 
Ben.
