Paypal Shreds Ostensibly Rare Violin Because It Cares

bourgWhen we last left Paypal, the company was busy destroying Christmas for a bunch of kids. This week they're shredding violins into bits while taking money from unsuspecting sellers. When will we stop trusting these guys? When they kill a puppy?Regretsy reader Erica sold an ostensibly rare violin to an eBay buyer who paid using Paypal. The buyer disputed the authenticity of the instrument and asked for his money back. Rather than handle it amicably with Erica, the buyer went to Paypal who advised them to supply proof that the item had been destroyed and they would refund the money. The buyer then shredded the violin into chowder and sent a handsome photo to Paypal and Erica. Paypal refunded the money.
