I've been selling on eBay since 2000 - this is a bad idea. Paypal transactions that are digital based (gift card codes, iTunes codes, BTC) have no recourse for a chargeback.

You will almost certainly be the victim of a chargeback

No less than 1/3 buyers have charged back after paying with Paypal. I guess that's why they don't mind paying $220+ per bit coin and paypal always sides with them.

I thought eBay/PayPal were going to start forbidding all BTC related sales?

Well, we have enough people here complaining they got scammed / their account blocked on ebay.
Furthermore you will only attract more scammers by advertising here, because most people here know how where they can get their Bitcoins cheaper.

you realize that by asking people to pay as a gift on your listing, you are in violation of ebay policies right?  I'd be surprised if some of these aren't investigated and you lose your ebay privileges...

Explain this than http://www.ebay.com/itm/261225025951?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

I'm accepting Cash for Bitcoin. When ebay says they wouldn't let you use cash as a payment method. Based on my experience ebay doesn't give a shit as long as your making them money.

I wouldn't recommend doing this. People with hacked paypal accounts could purchase them. If you are selling on ebay only accept bank trans.

I learnt this the hard way about a year ago today. My first and last time being BTC scammed.....so far

You do understand how easy it would be for a user to charge back their transaction thru Pay Pal 3 months after you've left them positive feedback and sent their coins...right?
