They have always sided with the scammer [both buying/selling]. We need to keep our fingers crossed and hope a new payment processing alternative does surface with all of the problems eBay has been going through. Maybe a big player, such as Amazon [http://www.amazon.com], or an up and comer, such as Wigix [http://www.wigix.com], will be able to provide a solution.

At least they have changed the text, but eBay really should employ proof readers and writers on more than minimum wage.

Many times my buyers got exactly what I described and PayPal ruled in their favor anyway. I once lost a case because someone said the product wasn't as high quality as another item they bought on eBay (which costed about twice as much). You claim this is a mistake but it could just be one of those unannounced rules. Kind of like the way your distance selling rules force accepting returns. Maybe they've rolled that out worldwide as an improvement on the buying experience. Yeah, unfortunately that is how it works with PayPal.
