Quoted from starfighter:Correct.
In addition, if the seller removes the funds from the account before any claim, paypal has nothing to withdraw for the dispute. Assuming of course the seller doesn't have a bank account attached to the paypal account.
You are wrong about that. They will charge it to your paypal account, sending into the negative. If you do not bring your balance to zero, they will eventually send you to collections. Happened to me before.
Quoted from starfighter:Was it with a gifted transaction?
This was before the day of gifted transactions but makes no difference to what you claimed. What I quoted from you was that if you withdrew the funds already, paypal couldn't do anything. Which is 100% wrong.
Regardless, a Paypal gifted transaction can still be subject to chargeback as they can simply claim unauthorized transaction, or could be a compromised account/card. You're thinking about this transaction in terms of what paypal's site says and typical transactions between reasonable human beings. There's a different level to things, you're going to want to be very careful.
