they usually freeze accounts if there is a dispute against the person open or if they have put a lot of money through their account recently. £6k in a year if I remember right.
Just bank transfer the guy a pound.
I sold a motorbike a couple of years back and the buyer wanted to pay £5K via Paypal.
I had my account frozen and checked for money laundering across the EU (the buyer was from Norway) - took 2 weeks to sort out and actually get the money out of Paypal.
eBay already robs sellers with listing fees and final auction price fees so it would be nice if they put in place a payment system that used bank transfers and not Paypal.
They already do it on eBay.fr so if would be easy to do it here too but I guess, since they also own Paypal, they like robbing sellers a 3rd time with Paypal fees...
