PAYPAL

[matthew71]

just recieved a fairly large payment for a frame i have sold, and it seems i have been charged 4% fee,s? is this normal ? i agreed a price with the seller but have not recieved that amount. dose this mean the buyer has not paid the charges? or it is just normal for paypal?it seems a bit harsh being charged to recieve money

anyone had this problem ?

It's normal, the seller pays the fees unless the payment is specified that it should be a gift payment.

only if under £6 i understand.
But you should have got agreement with the buyer that he pays the fees. Otherwise you pay.

you should've stated gift, or for the buyer to add the 4-5%..... bummer.

Easy fix tho. refund the payment, and start again..

Paypal offer a service. You pay for that service. Simple.

Incidentally, if i was a buyer and i got a payment returned to me with instructions to pay the fees, id tell the seller to get lost.

Fees still payable if Paypal gift unless money is sitting in Paypal account.
