I'm in the same position.. joined forum last week and have only gotten 1 person to sell me btc with paypal. I've used paypal for years so I don't understand the lack of trust for it... but to each their own.
Same thing happens on craigslist. 9/10 times you mention paypal and people run for the hills.
It's really easy to commit chargeback fraud with Paypal. Also, from what I understand, Paypal won't help you out if you've been a victim of BTC chargeback fraud.
