Remember the titanic battle that I had with the ripoff guy in Oz?   
Where Visa did the right thing and refunded the money. Well Paypal  
still has me blacklisted, even though the seller was finally banned  
from eBay, they insist that the only way to be able to get back on  
eBay is to pay the bad guy (so that they can get their commission)  
Well it must be getting close to two years since I have been eBay and  
PayPal free and frankly it is fine- both of them are totally self  
serving greedy immoral and monopolizing slimepits of the internet.  
Caveat Emptor never had a better application. Remember its all good  
until you have a problem, then you are screwed. evilBay and puppetPay  
own the rights to the  PT Barnum philosophy   of a 'sucker born every  
minute' and 'there is a lot more fish in the sea'- so my caution is  
don't put yourself in the position to find out.
