PayPal
Account limited with $890 and funds frozen for six months

I was doing business fine on eBay/PayPal, and all of a sudden my account with $890 is "limited" and I cannot get my money back for 6 months. What?!
PayPal must have opened a CD with my money, and they cannot refund until it matures. I bet that is standard operating procedure for PayPal with ALL funds they receive.
I have sent them the info they want, called them, and asked if there is ANY recourse beyond appeal, and they said no. They also refunded my money to a fraudulent buyer when the buyer said they didn't receive my $400 camera. Shame on me for not requiring a signature. But the FedEx driver noted his delivery to this user's doorstep, since it was in a remote area of Nevada. That guy got my camera and his money back from PayPal.
PayPal has terminated my account. I have filed disputes with TRUSTe and the BBB. We'll see what happens.
