    Can we sue PayPal for this 'virtual goods' travesty?

    I'd really like to see PayPal forced to honor disputes for people scammed when buying domains or other 'virtual goods'. I'm 0/2 now in filing such claims and in both cases they have added insult to injury with 'we have taken no action against the seller at this time'. These guys are free to go on scamming with the same PayPal account and PayPal completely ignores it because they were selling a non-tangible item.

    Whet legal recourse do we have here? I'm less interested in getting my money back than seeing PayPal changed going forward. Would any lawyers be willing to take this case on? I'm sure they would have no shortage of domainers willing to act as 'head of the class' for a class-action lawsuit...

    Thanks for any input.

    It's in their T&Cs unfortunately, so no recourse...

    I can put anything I want in my terms and conditions, that doesn't make it legal or prevent people from suing me.

    That's as maybe. But in this particular instance, I think their T&Cs hold water. This has been a bone of contention for years, but I don't remember anyone contemplating or attempting action.
