It reeks of possible fraud. Paypal has the right to freeze a fraudulent account. Trying to fight against Paypal by saying, "Think of the children! The families you are hurting!" is a red herring and doesn't refute Paypal's argument. Regretsy should have contacted Paypal before trying to use them as any sort of charitable collection agency.
Yeah fiel that's what I was essentially trying to say. However because of the available ToS on using that feature availble to the public, they should have not been flagged by fraud at that level is what the public has a problem with, or let them reasonably resolve the misunderstanding.

You have to remember this is the last conversation, not the first. I'm sure they kept asking to go up until someone put their foot down and essentially told them to f`uck off.
