So if I am reading the updated policy correctly.... Ebay is now going to charge a fee for using Paypal?
Is this correct?
If so that is pretty crappy of them!
They already take out a fee for using the site.
Let us poor sellers make a LIL bit of $$$

Any chance of a link to the possible extra charge? :shrug:
guess i didn't read it that carefully(not more than the heading actually) that stinks!
I think they always charged a fee. When I sell a razor for say $40 I only get $38. But you do save on postage thru pay pal.
An update to our customersQuote:

Fees, holds, returns & cancellations, and Money Back Guarantee: Users now authorize eBay to instruct PayPal to make deductions from their PayPal account(s) for fees, returned items, items not as described, return shipping, cancellations (under our new cancellation policy), and Money Back Guarantee reimbursements. eBay will recommend, rather than request, when PayPal can restrict funds in a seller's PayPal account. We clarified language for holding seller funds, placing charges on a seller invoice and/or charging a payment method on file, and removing funds in a buyer's currency.
That is what I am confused about.Quote:

Maybe I just don't understand these technical thingys...LOL
Don't use ebay,Paypal is pretty easy to work with,I just went thru a dispute with an SRP member who is a liar and a cheat.
Paypal got it worked out no problem,call them Via phone,talk to a real person.
Sorry about the trouble with a member...Quote:

Ebay charges roughly a 10% final value fee. Paypal charges roughly 3%. I don't think there is any change in that. Only now, rather than ebay deducting the fees automatically (from your paypal account) they will have to await your instruction to paypal. Thinking that there may be an alternative to using paypal for your fees.Quote:

It is like the scene in the old movie, "The Magnificent Seven." Steve McQueen's character is telling of the guy who told his friend he is going to play poker. His friend says, "The game is crooked."
"I know," he replies, "but it's the only game in town." :boohoo:

Danged old SRP members! :rofl2: I suppose ebay still has some advantages. I tried to read through it. Seems samo-samo.
Reckon Ebay/PayPal might save on some taxes for themselves?
Ooh boy. Now that's customer service! PM sent :)Quote:

Why don't they say that in PLAIN ENGLISH then?Quote:

Because plain English is "vague" or "open to interpretation", at least that is what many corporate lawyers want us to believe.Quote:
