Receiving Money From Paypal Using The Personal Payment

It's getting out of hand. You're right Bill, it was a great convenience at first, now I just feel like they are taking advantage of a situation with the joint effort with Ebay. Both websites nickel and dime you to death to the point where it almost isn't worth it to try to sell thru them. Ebay is actually charging fees now based not only on the final value price, but also the SHIPPING! How can they justify a fee based on a service they themselves don't provide?? Then of course Paypal gets their cut of what you get paid for!

emazers - How did Paypal know you were receiving payments for goods? Were you using them to create shipping labels for the items even though they were personal payments? That's the only way I can see them red-flagging it. Otherwise how would they even make the connection on what you were selling?

the reason they're adding shipping to the overall final value fee is because of people trying to trick the system. they'll list electronics for like $10 but shipping will be $500. this is how they were getting by with not paying a final value fee.

like clown said, it's a business and they'll do whatever they can to make a dollar. even if it drives away potential customers and long time customers.

i sell on ebay constantly and i'm getting pretty sick of their antics.
