Do you really think that a company as big as Paypal (and Ebay, as they are the same company) really want your $1k? What they want is for you and everyone else to have a great time using Paypal so they can rip you off on the fees, just like any other bank.
Why were you depositing money into your Paypal account? I've used it hundreds of times (for significantly larger sums of money than $1k (but don't tell customs that) and never deposited money into the account. I have a credit card that I like to use, but also have my Bank account linked. I don't see the reason to drop large amounts of cash into my account.
For that reason I won't be responding to your challenge, as I see it as pointless.

Rightfully complaining about a company freezing your assets with no warning is hardly whinging.
Hands up if you've all read every paragraph of Paypal's TOS.
I paid for my TSA 120 in February($4100) with paypal - no problem.
The problem is: According to paypal as of 31/03/2010 new anti-money laundering laws came into effect. They did not. March 31st was the final day for compliance with EXISTING laws regarding identification.
I transferred the money 5 days before hand and not word one was said about needing more ID before 31/3. They just chose to freeze the account, THEN tell me.
You daft-as
if you think any company doesn't want to hold your money, however small the amount, to their benefit. Hundreds or thousands of small amounts make a great-big amount on which they can earn interest.
