[Closed] Are you protected when "gifting" using paypal?

what?

do you mean if you give someone some money, a mate or family member probably, and then decide their not your mate anymore?

or else using it to transfer cash when you buy stuff from people you dont know with no extra charges and then hoping you have some come back?

I dont like paypal but why would gifting protect you and why would you think it might?

cheers

against what ? Why would a gift need protecting ? Or are you just dodging the fees ?

(that's what I'd say if I was Paypal)

Wot s_p said. So, no.

or sorry, i ment when buying off here. as a gift. if the item doesnt come can we get the money back?

no you are not, you cannot open a dispute on a payment sent as a gift

but if youre buying the seller will swallow the fees
