What some of you folks seem to be missing are that just because the funds came out of the buyers PayPal account & bank account does NOT mean the funds arrived in the sellers account. It just does not work that fast. It can take a couple of days to go through, longer if either party is in another country. I wouldn't have disputed the PayPal transaction that quickly either.
As to being stuck in a foreign country with no credit cards - sorry but that's your fault. Yes it's a PITA but when you use your card in a manner & location that is out of the ordinary the credit card company IS going to flag it as suspicious and shut you down for your own protection. Want to prevent that? Call them & let them know you'll be travelling, where you'll be travelling & for how long.
Their security features are there for your protection. I'm sorry your bank never told you that. They should have. It would have saved major headaches & residual anger on your part but it's certainly better than having your identity & life savings stolen.
