[Leica] Paypal and Postal Insurance Question

[richard.lists at gmail.com (Richard Man)]

You did the right thing by not ship it without insurance. As to answer your
question: Paypal has no interest in you, the seller. They are "afraid" of
the buyer because buyers may dispute charges if they pay with their own
credit card, so Paypal will do anything to make sure they don't initiate a
charge back. You, OTOH, is nobody to them.

That's why I always pay with credit card, and always take any money out from
the Paypal account ASAP. Paypal is a necessary evil.
