The present system exposes sellers to enormous risk. A buyer can pay for an item via paypal, pick it up, or arrange for a friend to pick it up, then open a dispute claiming they never received the item, and without online tracking such disputes are invariably resolved in the buyers favour.
No it doesn't. PayPal buyer and seller protection policy excludes protection for buyers for items they pickup in person (or have someone pickup on their behalf).
