[QUOTE="BUncirculated, post: 1248446, member: 29581"]Even though the buyer filed a charge back with their credit card company, PayPal will hold the funds until the buyer returns the merchandise from the sale. The credit card company can squawk all they want, but PayPal will stick to their guns. I've had it happen several years ago, which is why I stopped selling on eBay, on a GSA Morgan. The seller won the auction with a winning bid of $540, I shipped the coin the next morning, sent the tracking info to the buyer. 2 days later I received delivery confirmation, and the same day it was delivered the buyer filed a charge back with their credit card company. PayPal held the funds until the buyer returned the coin. They also provided me with the contact information of the rep from the buyers credit card company handling the charge back, and I contacted them and told them their client must return the item in question before the funds are released back to them. It was a headache, and one I had enough of, and I closed my eBay store as a result. Now I only buy from dealers I know on eBay. And I sell on local craigslist.com. No fees, no headaches, and cash only transactions.[/QUOTE]
