Default Future sales via Paypal!

People by now should have more sense not to send ANY payments via Paypal as a gift, as we all know if it goes t1ts up there`s no come back. So, anyone selling anything from now on should add the 4% or whatever to the sale price cos it`s annoying when you see a potential bargain and then get asked to send as a gift or ADD FEES which then bumps the price up.

When I sell stuff on eBay I have to pay fees, that`s the way it is!

Plus on low amount sales I`m not even sure Paypal charge anyway!!!

Ps. This isn`t directed at any recent purchases I`ve made, just a general observation.

Ain't that the truth. I would avoid any seller who wants the payment as a 'gift' it is a red flag imho!

I am done with Ebay and Paypal altogether now. There is just no protection for the seller any more. And because of this, scam artists are ripping people off.
Facebay is the new Ebay!
