    The thing is, you can only get your money back from them if they haven't yet taken the money out of their PayPal account

    that does not sound right to me
    surely paypal have his bank account details !!

    either way ,it should be paypals problem to get their money
    back from this whank enthusiast after paying fooked over buyers
    their money .

    Re: pay pal buyer protection.

    I agree with you Shakal but that's how it is. They have their bank account details yes but they don't have the right to take money out of his account as and when they want. If it is still in Paypals hands then it's another story.
