Sad to hear that. I just used PayPal for an Ebay order. It's oh so convenient for little things like an inner tube I had to get for one of the kids dirt bikes.
There is no convenient option usable on that except credit card and that's such a pain.
Oh well. Guess I paid for that jerk. My bad.

What's the issue? They don't get a dime of my money in fees or interest, because I have it tied to my bank account whenever I make purchases.
Same Here.
If we stop doing business with companies who do things we don't like we wouldn't be driving cars and trucks made in mexico etc etc etc .

PayPal and ebay are two separate companies and no longer part of the same group of companies.

Not true, 1.69% in PYPL is hardly a "majority".

Neither is 1.66% in EBAY.

I have used PayPal many times and will continue to do so. They don't get any money from my transactions. However, when I was getting out of metal detecting I sold close to $2K of equipment as family/gift. As soon as I get paid for something I transfer the money to my bank account immediately. They got wise and froze my account for a month. No problem I had nothing in my PayPal account to 'freeze' LOL. Just couldn't pay/buy through them. Lot of folks don't like them. That's OK. I do what's best for me.

Maybe because they don't allow firearms or certain firearm parts purchases going through their system?

You can buy all the firearms parts you want as long as the transaction is through Ebay.

They also don't allow illegal drugs, regulated drugs, etc; etc; etc. How would PayPay know whether a firearm or related accessory that is regulated by the Federal or state governments is being conducted legally? They wouldn't know whether Interstate Firearms transactions are on the up & up. That's a major liability for PayPal. Not only do our firearms manufacturers have to worry about being sued due to a gun they made that was used to kill someone, but PayPal could find themselves in the same boat. Looking at the items they forbid, the only firearms related items I see are Federally or state regulated.
I'd have to refresh myself on the finer details, but they don't allow complete firearms, actions/receivers, ammunition, magazines (maybe just high capacity?), and maybe triggers (not sure on the trigger stuff though).
You can buy barrels, stocks, scopes, and other stuff like that.
Not defending them, just trying to clarify a bit.
