Looks like they're testing it out, so it won't apply to most people, at least not yet.

I don't even want to go on the eBay sellers board today after seeing this!
Folks in the collectibles categories are pretty solid eBay customers. The wild stories are about people buying consumer goods, especially ladies buying apparral and accessories. From the stories I read, ladies pull the same stuff on eBay as they do in brick and mortar retail. Order 3 dresses, pick 1, return 2. Wear the dress to an affair, then return it. I can only imagine the lady in the photo is going to return that purse because she changed her mind on color!
And these returns count as defects against sellers!

I went ahead and signed up, even though I rarely return purchases. I don't see any indication that any "regular" PayPal users would be refused.
Personally, I really appreciate PayPal. I understand my purchases through PayPal cost a bit more costly than the item I'm paying for plus shipping, but the convenience is well worth the price. On the one occasion that I got burned by an unscrupulous "seller" — I paid but he never sent the stamp, and didn't answer my emails — PayPal refunded my costs less a few cents.
