Be aware that PayPal will take all your money if you accept payment for Firearms or Ammunition using PayPal. They not only will restrict your account but will take any money you have in the account for violating their policy.
Six months ago I logged onto PayPal to find my account restricted. I contacted PayPal and learned I had violated their “Acceptable Use Policy” for accepting funds for ammunition. They told me I was permanently banned and my money will be frozen for 180 days to make sure no damages resulted in the violation. I had $2000 in cash and $3000 in bitcoin. It was bad enough I couldn’t sell the Bitcoin when the price doubled but at the 180 day mark they just took my cash. PayPal says I agreed to pay them $2500 for each violation when I first accepted their terms. Bottom line got nowhere speaking to them so now I guess have to send them a Demand Letter and possibly small claims court, not sure exactly.
Bottom line! There are a lot of members that use PayPal on here so be aware of the risks. Don't think it cant happen to you, I made that mistake!
