You might as well toss a coin in the air and call heads or tails as depend on Paypal buyer protection.
I had a perfect ebay feedback rating until someone I purchased from never sent the item. After many attempts to communicate with them I filed for papal buyer protection and was denied because the person went ahead and mailed me the wrong item but gave paypal the tracking number showing "something" was delivered to my address. Paypal decided in their favor even though they had several negative feedback showing that others had been done the same way as me and I had perfect feedback of over 300 transactions.
To sum it up "Don't depend on Paypal buyer protection"
