PayPal can be mis-used, you don't need money to use it and you can use a stolen credit card.

I guess some people don't trust others from different countries?

It's probably so that users from other countries won't post PayPal scams saying they never received the item (I know USPS doesn't do delivery/signature confirmation overseas). The majority of the time, PayPal simply won't give a damn and refund the money back to the buyer, while you, the seller, is left with no money or items you shipped.

I know I won't ship another expensive item overseas via PayPal unless I'm using a privately owned shipping service: DHL/Fedex/UPS, although the shipping price would be a lot more.

I know, but there is still a border between the two countries which is stupid so technically Canada is an international country as far as eBay/PayPal and anyone in the U.S. are concerned which I find somewhat weird - You could walk in and out of Canada from the U.S. so technically the international thing is stupid?
