Default for small e-bay transactions, it's very convenient. going to the bank to fill out a M.O. and then..

the post office to send said M.O. for 60 friggin dollars is a pain in my ****!

It's also nice for when idiot ebayers don't ship after you pay. Paypal gets them to ship or refund.

Default wrong. paypal only covers up to $200 or so. i got burned on a long block and got left standing there

with $200 of "buyers protection" money.

All i got besides that was a refusal to give me any sort of help.

I submitted all relevent info to the FBI, again with no results.
