In any case, later on in the article it discusses that the buyer and seller are "working through the dispute process with PayPal, which is currently ongoing". Considering the value of the cartridge, did the buyer not opt to buy insurance on the shipment? Does PayPal offer insurance on purchases? For something such high value, not purchasing insurance seems like a disaster waiting to happen.

- autotune 4y agoPeople downvoting you have not had the unfortunate experience of working with PayPal on any kind of ongoing/substantial basis.
- tluyben2 4y agoWhen I used to use PayPal and read forums with 1000s of complaints about them, it almost exclusively sided with the buyer, even in obvious scams. That changed?
