Do you all think this new policy change will include all coins?
REVISED SECTION 11.5
We’re making a clarifying change to Section 11.5 and adding a new item that will be excluded from PayPal Seller Protection. The new item that will not be eligible for Seller Protection is:
Items equivalent to cash, including gift cards

It would be great if it worked for coins, but I am fairly certain that it does not. In fact, just the opposite. eBay now requires that sellers give 30 days for seller returns.
Not if you don't want to worry about maybe getting part of your final value fee back. But want to take a chance a getting ripped off a month after when you thought you sold something.

That policy makes no sense, and if I was still in the biz, would be THE dealbreaker. Yet another goof that makes Fleabay more like a Craig's List for thieves.

Am I reading right, that they are not giving seller protection for any bullion item?
I don't see that. Not sure what your reading into it.

Maybe it's just that holding bullion is a lot like holding cash to me.

So is gasoline, real estate, cigarette coupons or winning lottery tickets
Seems like a loophole to me. Most coins we collect are legal tender; cash value. If it was just gift cards, what not just say gift cards, that term is pretty well understood...
I'm assuming other items that could be included might be, for example, coupons that are worth $X off a purchase. This seems pretty clear to me that it's aimed at an item whose value is based on its stored value, not a collectible that happens to have a tangential, non-collectible value as well.
... I would think anything of Numismatic value would not be considered in this section. Just my 2-Cents.
While the distinction between collectible coins and cash (or cash equivalents) is obvious to all here, and specificially cited in shipping and shipping insurance instructions, at the end of the day, you will have to rely on everyone at PayPal to understand that distinction without it being written out in their policy. That seems like a pretty tall order to me.

LMAO, as I spit out my coffee ..............
......... of course you will hear about it as this is an eBay bashers paradise.
Every story confirms to Ricko that he made the right move.
You hardly ever hear of the 99.99% of eBay coin transactions that go off smoothly.
If you avoid eBay, you are only hurting yourself . ......

How true, but less competition for us not brainwashed by paranoia

sounds like a good question for a lawyer
Their time is billable. Careful what you ask for here.
