I agree. A lot of people apparently have had a bad time with them (
www.paypalsucks.com) but on three occasions they have tracked down fraudulent sellers for me and gotten my money back.
I'm not sure how this got onto to PayPal, but since it did I will weigh in with my experiences...
Take time to actually read the posts on paypalsucks. They are people who, for the most part, were trying to beat the system. Legit sellers should have no problem providing PayPal the information they request. My account was frozen when I had $2000+ in transactions with a three day period. I complied, and my account was restored within two weeks.
