Default Ive got hundreds of horror stories

So ill start as far back as i can remember...A couple years ago, I sold a new nokia e65, was still sealed. I was moving apartments at the time, and buyer turned out to be local so she came over and picked it up. When she arrived, removalists were coming in and it was bedlam! anyways, couple hours after this she rang me and told me the phone didnt work, she wanted her money back, so no problems, she mailed phone to my new place and i happily refunded. Well, week late i took it to the nokia shop (under warranty) to get looked at and they advised since the phone had been taken apart and no longer had a curcuit board inside it, that i wasnt elegible for the warranty... So no warranty and paypal gave buyer her money... Oh and she left me horrid feedback to

Paypal about 2 years go, held my payments. I thought nothing of it and was very unlearned about the whole bussiness. I thought that it was just something they do so I sent out every order, 3,000 worth of items. Then 1 week later they suspended my account and I had to wait 6 months to get my funds, absolutly NO reason was given as par with their waiver when you sign up. I started a new account with Ebay and Paypal thinking that they did not do this anymore. But yet once again, the "Hold" was put onto my funds. But this time I did not send out one item, I wrote to each buyer and explained what was going on, most of them said to me, no kidding, that "Paypal would NEVER do that, you are just a SCAMMER" They have Ebay'ers so brainwashed that if you do not use Paypal then it must be criminal, so no more Ebay for me!!!
