I'm seeing a lot of horror stories from paypal but it seems like mostly people selling. They seem to be pretty buyer oriented when it comes to chargebacks etc, is my assumption right?
It's easy to end up losing either way if the opponent is determined to scam you, no matter if you're buying or selling. Scammy sellers could set up anonymous cards from Russia and withdraw once the transaction is done, leaving the buyer cold. Scammy buyers could reverse charges easily, as we all know.
