Got screwed using Paypal What to do?

That sucks!

Call your CC company and see if they will cancel payment. But, do it NOW! Don't wait.

be sure to call your credit card company asap, file a dispute and ask for their assistance...they may give you a provisional credit while they investigate...good luck

If this is the case. Why bother with Pay Pal?

Basically, don't use paypal if you can help it. Their customer service is worse than useless. Definitely issue a chargeback against them (Paypal). They will hate it and fight it and may lock up your account (take out all $ now if you have any in there) , but the CC company should stick up for you. IMHO Paypal is fine until you have a problem, then they suck ass.

*been there, been screwed by paypal, but the other way around, as a seller*

I ain't no lawyer but I'll just bet my butt Paypal ain't responsble.---- Don't you guys notice dealers with adds here that won't take your card??---But they will take Papal?? The only purpose is so you can't return the item or file a merchant's dispute. Gives you a good idea of what they think of what they're selling. Do yourself a favor and avoid this type of merchant. I'm just about sure that using Paypal is kinda like a cash advance thing.--No recourse! Sorry for your predicament.
