    I'm curious -- why did you do the trade in the first place? It sounds possibly dicey, so what was your incentive to take the risk?

    ALWAYS withdraw your funds regularly from your PayPal account by doing an electronic transfer into your checking account regularly, and then move the money from that account into another separate account not connected to PayPal. Just for good measure.

    And here are some alternate numbers for PayPal if that other one doesn't work out:

    (800) 836-1859
    (877) 672-9725
    (866) 272-9725

    Like I mentioned in my original post if you are going to exchange egold make sure you withdrawal the funds from paypal or whatever processor you are using before sending the egold. Tell the purchaser there is a 5-7 business day hold so that funds can be cleared and the once the funds hit your bank account thats when you send the egold. They can try and do a reversal but paypal is less likely to give them some of "paypals" money if you have a zero balance.

    yes 500$ is lots of money that is to you! but paypal dealing a millions dollars per day so that is not a big one for paypal.

    they respond with 7 to 10 days.

    Take a look at paypalsucks.com, you will see a lot of people including me share the same problems.

    Paypal is actually stealing funds from accounts to cover all their chargeback fees.

    Since they took my 1300$ i i stopped using them.

    Serious payment processors: moneybookers.com, neteller.com
