Allen, the 3% Paypal fee is for credit card payment. You can tell the buyer that you accept Paypal but not from a credit card. That way they need to hook their Paypal into a bank account to fund the payment and you don't get nailed for the 3% fee. If the item is expensive enough and the buyer wants to use the credit card for Paypal I will tell them to add the 3% to cover it. As for the Postal money orders, I could send you a money order and cancel it right away to get my money back and you wouldn't know it was no good until you went to cash it. There really is no truly safe way to pay for stuff. You need to be comfortable with the person you're dealing with.

dont think so Jeff...they hose me 3% any time they touch the dough and then sit on it for three days collecting interest before flipping it in the account, nice deal wish i would have dreamed it up,dont matter how it comes to me its the same every time, I am with Allen its ok for little stuff but if its a spendy item I will pass and most people get cranky when you ask for the 3%...

Hmmm, I thought it was just credit card payments that you receive that they take 2.9% but it appears they take that from all transactions received. I haven't been selling anything lately so I never noticed that. I guess the credit card thing doesn't make a difference.
