I got my A$$ jacked by paypal Friday.  I received some funds for some accessories (russian scope and a holster).  Then I paid for a bronze membership here on Arfcom.  I received a hate-mail from them telling me I was in violation of their usage policy.  I called them to explain that I had received and sent funds for nothing that violated their usage clause and I was told  the following  "  Sir even if you sell a pencil on a website that sells things that violate the usage policy you are in violation"  Okay.  I'll be closing my account. ( You anti-gun F@#kers!)

With all the press out there about PayPal's stated policies and plenty more about their "alleged" unethical, fraudulant, inconsistant and deceitful behavior; it's a wonder any one uses them to hold or transfer funds.

So you violated the usage policy by renewing your membership ?

Interesting.

Before too long they are going to have a 6 point policy much like the one with the Kevin Bacon Theory.

If a site is related in any way within 6 points of their policy, it will be a violation

Send them a care package to their corporate offices, accounts section, filled with nice ripe steamy dog shit.

I used Paypal to pay for my Bronze membership ... must have been Nov 05.  No issues.

They stated its because I received money for "questionable items"  But the email was sent the day after I applied and sent payment for a Arfcom membership.  The other transactions happened a month earlier?

I don't understand why anyone who is progun would support these fuckers.  Find out who they like to give money too if you don't know already.


The reason I don't buy and sell on ebay is paypal.

It's really damn shame there was no way we could file a class-action suit against these maggots.

Picking and choosing who they will allow us to do business with?  That's downright communist!

It's not like we're buying and selling stolen guns and cocaine...
