How to be sure you're protected when buying on eBay.
Paypal offers buyer protection, which is why we recommend using Paypal for all purchases. However, before making your purchase make sure that you know how much Paypal will cover you for. Here's how:
When purchasing an item on eBay, make sure the seller accepts Paypal. If so, look for the "Buy Safely" section on the right side of the screen. (It is located under the "Meet the Seller" section.) Within the "Buy Safely" section, Paypal will list if you are protected up to $200 or $2000. Do not purchase anything that is more expensive than this protection limit!
The following information explains how Paypal determines the buyer protection amount. This is directly from the Paypal user agreement.
