Paypal


Okay, I've been out of the selling game for a number of years, so maybe I'm just not informed. However, I thought that paypal only charges 3% if a credit or debit card is used? If checking is used there are no transaction fees I thought. So why does EVERYONE on this site and Audio Asylum ask for extra money when using Paypal? This seems rather disingenuous to me. If you want to cover paypal charges then make if for when Paypal actually charges you, if you want to make a few extra bucks then raise your price. It just irks me. What am I missing? Are there charges I don't know about?

US money orders have one downside that seller can actually cash them and forget about sending the item giving no damn about feedback. There are tricks to get as much as upto a hundred of positive feedbacks and get away with cash in the pocket.
I'd rather figure out 'flat rate' that takes care of my 3% fee than inform the client that he/she must cover it. It's already included, but if the customer decides to pay with cash or check, I may even drop it. Please note that paypal is secure and you can request refund and return the item.
LOL Silcric,
I was only worried of your health and nothing else!
Switch to mary johanna so you'll become more liberal. Been usin' it for quite a number of years myself, now managed to get a 'green card'(prescription) in Portland due to the chronic insomnia and feel OK physically and mentally. The guy or girl with joint in the hand will less-likely draw a gun and fire at someone. That proves why Oregon and especially Portland with chronically depressed population welcomed that beloved green 'lady'. If same would've happened in NYC, maybe there wouldn't be the deadly shooting from laid off depressed individual.
Polk.., I agree with you 100%, but soon lustful fees would overwhelm ebay and either drastically decrease the value of used item or will bring it close to the price of new. One thing I know that I'm not friendly anymore neither to ebay or paypal and sell stuff substantially more on CL. Just a bit of some extra work to advertise in few surrounding different states.
