This is a great writeup, and after first seeing it a few years ago, I finally have the opportunity to try this for my own run-in with Paypal capriciousness! I'm less optimistic about my case since I'm asking them to give me money, which is more exploitable than account reinstatement by bad actors willing to spam arbitration requests. Still, the worst case scenario is that I get to make Paypal pay for some shipping costs, so I may as well try. :)

Do you know what ended up happening with Colin's attempt?
Never heard any updates from him but I also haven't asked.
