^^ this.. I always tell seller this is how much I could offer and I only pay non gift option. If he doesnt like it, fair enough GLWS.





forgot to tell you.. was the purchase backed up by credit card? What was your money source? bank or cc?
I never gifted anyone using PP, so I did not know whether or not your could choose where you want to fund the purchase.

If your purchase is backed up by cc, rest assure. You will most likely get your money back even PP gives you shit. Just call your cc and do chargeback. Keep all of the emails and documents. They might ask you for that during the investigation.

Let me tell you now.

Two rules of thumbs have been keeping me from getting scammed.

1. NEVER PAYPAL ANYONE USING GIFT OPTION.

2. Deal too good to be true especially sellers don't have much previous feedbacks. Red Flag.

If I'm using paypal, I will try to pay them using credit card for double protection.
