What if an item doesn't arrive? Then you lost your money and your account is closed. Sounds like you're trying to scam someone. Why would you take people's money by selling them something and then close the account??
Actually that's not true. I have read quite a few posts from people who get the message we are unable to recover any funds. I myself have gotten it once before also.
anyone know if this will work. Listing items getting payment and paying fees then closing paypal account?
There is a difference between manipulating paypal and ebay because they won't let you sell.... and stealing people's money. It will work, but when the FBI comes knocking on your door for committing wire fraud, you'll probably wish you would have shipped these honest hard working people what they paid for.
