By policing their own site i mean they should be more closely monitoring activity with a view to catching out crooks. Surely they must be old hands by now at spotting a scam a mile off but seem to choose to turn a blind eye until something goes really wrong and then they have to do something about it, but always in their own time!!
A lot of the time that guarantees them and PayPal a fee so it's no wonder the dodgy buggers do such a crap job. Shocking attitude!!

Buggers cancelled my op just a couple of days before it was due. Inconsiderate barstewards!!

Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or hump it, piss on it and walk away!
