andrew399 Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Haha! What a classic, i put him down as a legend!! Did you hear that they ended up putting the pic for sale on ebay, the winning bid was $15000!! but the guy said that he has no intention of coughing up the money and just did it as a joke!

jewgaffer Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 The bloke who bid $15000 for the spider should have done a deal with the aussie. The Paypal protection department would have paid out on it if it only had seven legs. Cheers jewgaffer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont be fooled by Paypal, they will only pay you out if they are in the wrong . Not if you lose your money because some d*ckhead overseas took advantage of you. A lot of people don't understand this and hence think that Paypal is the best and safest alternative for online banking transfers. WHAT A LOAD OF CR4P! Screw EBay and screw PayPal.. all PayPal is is another way for ebay to make more money... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fine print states that PP will only pay out at their discretion and only if they can recover disputed monies from the seller! It's a Clayton's debt-collection service not a buyer protection programme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
