A couple weeks ago, a buyer demanded a refund on a baseball card I sold him. The claim was bullshit, and made just because the buyer is extremely picky, but that's a different problem. My problem is that a refund for 1,028$ was removed from my paypal account on November 8. I didn't have that money in my account, so the account went into the red. On November 17, that same charge of $1,028 was removed from my checking account at my bank. I didn't have the full amount in there because of bills and life, so that account also went into the red for a few days. Now the paypal charge was pending until today. I figured it took time for the check or whatever to clear, and after it did, paypal released the funds back into my account. It did not. Now I'm somehow out 2,000+ for a single, 1,028$ refund. I just called paypal,a nd they said it was a mistake, that EBAY had charged me the extra fee after already charging the refund. I called ebay to resolve the issue, and their rep just said "ebay does not have the ability to take money from your accounts." Seriously, they just repeated that over and over until I hanged up. I have tried to call paypal again, but haven't gotten through yet. So my question is: am I just out a thousand dollars? Can I go to my bank for any help?
