I think PayPal will still honor your refund on a bad transaction even if 
they can not recover the funds from the seller.  Even at that you still 
have the option of a chargeback.  I know, PayPal will be mad.  When you 
as the buyer make a payment to a seller those funds are not actually 
available to the seller immediately.  PayPal may credit the seller's 
account and make them available to him but they are doing this with 
PayPal money as they do not have the buyers funds in their account 
instantly.  There is a huge pile of state and federal regulations 
relating to these transfers and it is more than complex.  I have not 
read the PayPal terms and conditions in a while but did they not modify 
them a while ago to hold large ticket transfers for some period?
