Hello Ton,

I have permanently solved all PayPal related issues. When I sold this
product:

http://www.theyoungjerk.com/SC-022.html

They promptly closed my account and would not enter into a dialogue. As
it turns out the issue was over pharmaceutical growth hormone, whereas
this is a homeopathic remedy. The double speak in their replies was
beyond belief.

I had to ship an order a day for 30 days before I was ready to recover
payments.

They still sent me very authoritarian emails much later (after I
accepted payments through my bank) so I sent them an email:

**** off.

They have not replied since. I also closed both ebay acounts, and
politely reminded ebay that subsequent promotional emails require an
"opt out" link by law.

I heard about this before it happened to me.

Be warned.

Regards,

Frank Reitzenstein.
