PayPal Payment Option Please!

Never.

Because chargebacks. Paypal almost always side with the customer. See ArksCash and PSO2 for a similar problem with a similar payment option.

This is sadly true for the purchase of physical goods and non-subscription based transactions using a normal PP goods/services payment. For sub based transactions I have no clue as I've never been on the seller side of it.

I get around the customer one-sided chargebacks with an invoiced agreement prior to sale with conditions. Especially since my side work is the repair of older electronics (arcade and pinball). However, I also warranty my work, which is also in the conditions.

Originally it was a pain, but after the initial start it has protected me very well with fraudulent claims. Especially International customers, as I force them to use EMS shipping with the correct insurance coverage to protect me from even more false claims and overall loss. Shipping to EU and even JP isn't cheap.

That's what NCSoft were doing when they ran the European Aion servers. They dropped it after, though, so it's difficult to tell how well it worked for them. Obviously, NCSoft then also ditched Aion in Europe altogether, so that may have been the deciding factor for pulling the plug.

Such a stupid company, Paypal. Did you ever see this? Paypal dispute ends in destruction of violin.

Yeah, I read that article, pretty sad and not the first time hearing PP do this. PP can be hard to work with just on a small seller lvl. I can only imagine what SE's legal team has to do to cover themselves.
