Huh? This story doesn't really make much sense. PayPal don't charge investigation fees, don't cancel orders after two days (how would they even know to do this?) and don't allow fees to be passed on to customers ("$100 cheaper").

Yes, how would they even cancel an order with another company? What are you talking about? I have never claimed that they canceled my order.

They do however own the money on your account as long as you keep the money on your paypal account. They had just pulled the money back from the sellers account and gave it back to me again (much later). At that time the SEK->UK pounds exchange rate was much lower and the bank transfer usually ends up a few percent cheaper that paypal too.
