PayPal told me I’m not eligible for seller protection as she checked out as guest. I actually didn’t know this is one of criteria and apparently I need to contact PayPal to manually deactivate this on their side..

It seems like she’s selling medications? I tried to contact her on eBay but she blocked me, obviously she received my goods and don’t wanna return it so she blocked me!!! And can not believe PayPal has sided her way!! [emoji17]
I know you said that's what Paypal told you. But you need to check your account to see if it shows as ineligible as they're telling you. (They've been known to lie!) And if it says "eligible," they ARE lying.

Omg! @BeenBurned you are my gold star!!!!! I just checked and it does say it’s eligible!!!

How dodgy!!! I can’t believe they lie to my face!

But then I just found out the recipients name on the transaction is different to the shipping address PayPal sent me when I received the fund. Shipping address is the same though.

I have lodged a complaint to financial ombudsman hopefully PayPal don’t block my account [emoji17]

It doesn’t matter. If you shipped to the name and address shown in Paypal and the item was signed for, you have protection.

Made an offer, I accepted, then they asked for additional pictures afterwards. I asked which specific pictures and reminded them that they had to pay within 48 hours. Never responded or paid, even after an additional follow-up reminder and invoice were sent.

Made an offer, I accepted, then they asked me to cancel so they could use a different payment method on PayPal and assured me they would re-purchase. I was dumb enough to do it, and of course never heard from them again.
