Wife bought a sewing machine over eBay and PayPal a few years back. Arrived broken in a place the seller hid from the pics and did not disclose. All eBay and PP did was offer a $25 credit, it would have cost $200 to make the machine operational. Ended up eating $75 ($100-25) and the $50 for the repair opinion and tossed the machine in the junk.
Lesson learned. NEVER use anything but a CC on line unless they truly are "friends and family"....and if the price is too good to be true....it is. Pay the extra and buy from reputable sources, cheaper in the long run and keeps scammers from profiting.

They both have their place but paying for things from a website you don't know is not how they should be used.

The one time I had an issue Pp got my money back. I put a deposit on some footbaw tickets using reg Pp. When it came time to deliver the seller had nuttin. The UW athletic dept said that they had no record of that person buying tickets so PP made me whole. Used em hundreds of time PPFF and otherwise and never an issue.

FYI if you have a PP account you can print shipping labels with www.paypal.com/shipnow
 
There has been a lot of scam gun shops pop up lately on the internet. If they want you to use anything for payment BUT a credit card.......RUN. If you trace some of these shops internet info. You will find out that they don't have a FFL, and are based somewhere other then the US, every tho they list a US address. All of these shops say that they have ammo and guns at low prices. That's your first red flag. The second red flag is the method of payment.
