<p>[QUOTE="Ciscokid, post: 35119, member: 1932"]Interesting site-I have heard & read of all the horrors and problems from all post so far--Frozen accounts, charge backs etc. My main reason at my few times as a seller were the fees, the margins were non-existing to begin with, After ebays takes his cut, paypal takes his, the buyers pay for the cost to mailing/insurance I eat the packaging I lost money trying to sell--</p><p><br /></p><p>1 guy emailed and said, well you don't have PP to pay with, I went back and reeditted & added paypal & another bidder won auction and paid with personnal check--(that cleared BTW)--</p><p><br /></p><p>But now, reading this thread, I am concern, even tho as a buyer, I like paying with paypal because the buyer <i>does not have to pay the fees</i> . Sure, include the fee in your auction, hard to do unless you have a reserve price, guess who makes money if item doesn't sell?? So after reading this thread, as a seller it will difficult for me to include paypal again in any of my selling items, but then again, if a potential bidder emails me, I might just yet edit and add it--donno--</p><p><br /></p><p>I have purchased many high priced items using paypal, for example I paided with paypal for an item that was $3195.00--The transaction went smoothly, He got paid and I got a super high end item--so I guess the sword can cut both ways, from that 3195, ebay/paypal got super fees--So as a buyer ya I like paypal, as a seller? it sucks-- <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
