What just happened to accepting Paypal?? looks like they are trying to drive us away


i may have over reacted... for some reason PayPal wants to drive me into a business account. Looks like the fees are the same so not sure what that is all about, I'm just suspicious by nature

If you switch to a business account which is pretty easy you get a merchant ID, enter it here, and move on. If you don't want to do that then they make it very complicated to fill out forms, etc. I gave up and switched to business, made up a bogus business name and am moving on...

I went back and re-read the post below from Admin but I do not see any "work around" instructions. I also looked at the Audiogon "Safe Payment Methods" article that discusses PayPal and still nothing.  Can you point me to where I can find the work around instructions. Thanks
@mitch2  Send me an email to [email protected], Attention: Tammy and I will send you the instructions. 
I tried to hook up with Stripe, and got into a mess. Seems that Stripe collects it's user fees by means of a third party, "NEXWAY". Probably by checking a box unintentionally, my PP credit account was charged for $329. That got me pretty excited. I requested a full refund from NEXWAY, and it came through. Point here is, that I never saw an option for accepting or an explanation of this charge. 
Fraudulent sellers are avoiding PayPal like the plague, as their buyer protection forces them to refund purchases of faulty / damaged / counterfeit and otherwise illegitimate items. 
My advice is to steer clear of any seller who doesn’t want to do a transaction via PayPal. That is a red flag 🚩 that the seller is fraudulent.
