PayPal "Buyer Protection", ProstockMaster rip-off

I recently made a purchase from sales@prostockmaster.com – prostockmaster is a management program for stock photo submissions.  Well, they never delivered.  I filed a dispute with PayPal. He ignored the dispute.  Today PayPal informed me that they “may not be able to refund all, if any, of the funds.”  Huh? What kind of crap is that?  If a credit card company tried to pull that scam, they would be fined out of business. Yet PayPal seems to get away with this scam.  Can you say SCAM?!

Yet PayPal promises “buyer protection” and guarantees “fraud protection.”  Riiight. Anyone want to but a bridge?

Transformers

OK, as far as SFX went, damn good. As far as common sense – WTF? Let’s see. The Army needs to do an epic battle Royale with the baddie giant robots from the nether reaches of space.  Other goodie giant robots from space will be joining in the rumble.  They are already in the middle of the barren desert, nary a person around. The ideal space to duke it out.  Noooo. Let’s “flee” to the closest major city within driving distance. Not even an idiot would suggest that bone-head move.

 

Pure idiocy. All I can say is the writers were lazy assholes.
