    That's what I do and I never get chargebacked. As soon as you have it, transfer to your bank account or send it to another paypal account. When you have money IN YOUR HANDS, I dont think you'll get chargeback

    wrong, even if your account is $0 you still get chargedback, I recently got a nice little phone call from Paypal because I moved my funds after a few transactions and I was chargeback and they were wondering when they would receive their money. Even if you close your account and the person tries to charge you back paypal has ways to get the money from you

    closing ur account transfer funds is worse thing u can do on paypals end it will just make whoever charge u back case stronger

    i always leave money in until i have cleared 6 months on my last transaction which last time i check its 6 months they have to charge back or was it 6 weeks and i like to be protective xD

    most important thing is to always and i mean always daily if possible be checking the email to ur paypal and dont be afraid to call paypal buncha college drop outs working there so if ur agreesive and name drop which i do all the time u'll get ur way with there gook squad

    i have made loads of usd deals and have got charged back sometimes, never lost money myself though. just transfer the money away from the paypal account instantly after u recive it, u cant lose ur money. if the guy will do charge back, ur paypal account will go negative amount of money and you may just make new paypal account for urself. ive never got scammed for any usd but i have many paypal accos with negative amount of money

    Not true at all, unfortunatly. When I got charged back and I had negative funds for 30 days paypal sent me a letter saying I had to pay it or im going to be taken to court. I was verified, and I transfered the money immediatly after I got it into my bank account. The safest way to do things is sell items on an unverified account then after you get the money, send it to a verified account.
