They should cover you against getting ripped off. They will not cover you if the goods go faulty after you start using the goods. You really need to speak to your credit card company to ask if they have an online transaction guarantee (vast majority do). No credit card covers you for breakdowns unless they have the insurance facility and you pay for that insurance.

What are you buying and is it from a company?

If the sender can prove (via a tracking number) that he sent you something (does not matter what), Paypal will hang you out to dry. Your credit card company should be your next port of call and just dispute the Paypal charge and they will send you out a form to sign (I am assuming that the credit card companies operating in Ireland operate in a similar manner to the UK).

Is there any chance you could use a full stop or two to punctuate your messages. That will make it a lot easier for other viewers to understand your posts.
