While I've read some horror stories on GFY regarding chargebacks, they pale in comparison to those I've read on the PayPal forums - sellers getting hit with chargebacks for the purchase of physical goods (non-recurring) transactions a year or more later!

Fighting chargebacks is one arena where dating sites have the upper hand. When someone processes a chargeback we usually not only have the email address and IP, but also photos, profile information, and email coorispondance which sometimes contains nuggets like phone numbers, etc. Even with all that there's no guarantee the banks will side with the merchant over the customer, but it sure helps.
Paypal is a bastard. I always urge everyone I know who ships physical goods to buy the delivery confirmation from the post office. It usually only runs a buck or two extra per peice and it's so worth it.
