    It’s the only means you can use because it’s the only one the seller provides. Not your fault.

    What is shady? You name it.

    I mean first and foremost they’re a public-traded company that you’ll see on every storefront on the web, which together basically guarantees unethical business practices.

    They automatically enrolled users into PayPal credit without their knowledge or consent. They advertised $10 free credit for new members, then just…didn’t give it. They charge late fees and interest when their shitty servers fail to process payments. They will almost always take the buyer’s side in any dispute, regardless of provided evidence, they automatically opt users into data sharing, etc.
