    Paypal has recently changed its refund policy. Accordingly, if you return an item purchased on eBay, Paypal is charging the seller the entire original Paypal fee, and not reversing it. Thus BE AWARE that due to this, if you return this item for a refund and you paid via Paypal, a restocking fee equal to the original unreversed Paypal fee charged to me will be deducted from your refund amount. If you object to this, either do not use Paypal or contact Paypal and demand they drop this unfair refund policy. This is NOT my doing, but I will not be “eating” Paypal fees on returned items.
