E-Prohosted Aka Don Robertson - Ebay - Paypal ripoff New York New York
Bought a script and hosting from this person via EBay.
Charged my PayPal account for hosting, then cancelled my account. He still owes me $6.95!
He also sold me a Classified Ads script that had more bugs than a southeast Washington DC apartment. I lost another $8.95 there.
PayPal is dragging it's feet on my case, so I am warning all of the people who read this site.
BUYERS BEWARE!

Copy and pasted from Pay Pal's policies:
(Refund) Eligibility. "Even if the buyer's claim is justified, the buyer will receive a recovery only if there are funds in the seller's account. RECOVERY OF YOUR CLAIM IS NOT GUARANTEED."
.
You'll notice Pay Pal exculpates any payment by or loss to Pay Pal with these words:"Even if the buyer's claim is justified, the buyer will receive a recovery only if there are funds in the seller's account. RECOVERY OF YOUR CLAIM IS NOT GUARANTEED."
.
If the seller has sucked the money out of their account immediately (which is the intelligent thing for ANYONE honest or dishonest to do)you're screwed!
.
I had a small $25.00 loss to a scam seller several years ago, and Pay Pal refused action, as the seller had no money in his account. I then had the credit card issuer reverse the charge. I then received a terse communiqu from Pay Pal upbraiding me for "not filing with Pay Pal first".
Duuuuh! Been there, done that, was told to go suck an egg. (paraphrasing)
.
Unbelievably, I got a call from the bank about two or three months later stating Pay Pal would not accept the charge-back. Even though the bank said they'd absorb the disputed amount, I was absolutely LIVID! This dilemma should not have been resolved by a loss to the bank. I insisted the bank absolutely to not accept Pay Pal's rejection. The bank staff member then told me they'd already spent much in excess of the $25.00 disputed amount in time arguing with Pay Pal. The bank could only afford to absorb it.
.
This REALLY made me angry! That meant Pay Pal got their "commission", the scam seller got his money
and the bank got the $--tty end of the stick.
.
As I've stated in previous dialogue, Pay Pal amounts to the internet's cyber financial Nazis.
Sadly, I'm forced to deal with them on a weekly basis. Oh well, such is life!
