Gee...you just can't do anything anymore. We'll probably go back to a cash society before long if this keeps up.

I will agree 100% on this statement. The seller has zero protection from Paypal.

Yeah, that and take the money out of the paypal account so they can't touch it. My paypal used to be attached to a separate bank account for that reason but I stopped using pp.
