paypal quicky

[raj]

just a quicky,

as paypal take a certain amount from you for receiving a payment:disagree: could someone tell me how much i should ask someone to send me for me to receive £100 after the paypal deduction :scratch:

If they have a paypal balance and/or bank account linked then they can send it as a personal gift and no charges whatsoever .

3.4% generally for uk to uk accounts. I get funds from europe quite often and they seem to charge a lot more than that :rolleyes:

re the personal gift option, I tried that *once* for 6.70 and paypal shut my business account down because they suspected fraudulent activity. That was 3 months ago, it's still suspended with a lot of money tied up in it. I hate paypal. If it's a trusted party maybe you could use bank transfer, its FOC.

ok thanks, so if i ask for say £104 then i should clear the full £100.? i dont want to risk the "send as gift" option.

I use the gift option for certain things ,never had a problem to send or receive .

nor me. if i have to send money,say buying from ebay but like made a offer etc, i deliberatly put gift,
only prob if they dont send the item you aint got a leg to stand on! no buyer protection, so be carefull :agree:

I've moved largish amounts but only for people I trust 100% .
A mate in France has just bought an engine near me so I'm paying the guy and he's dropping it off here .My mate has PPd some dosh to cover .
This would be a legitimate gift transaction ......

oh yer but unless its on here, then yes, if it goes via ebay/paypal you get killed on charges,
listing fees,final value fees,paypal fees,
every one wants a slice of the cake (profit)
and its ghey
shame ebay such a good place otherwise id choose not to sell on it
tho i cant image what i did with out ebay b4 i knew, i think i joined first time back in 95 ebay was a small place then, now almost anything is on there lol

I'm just unlucky, I have no doubt it works for everyone else :crap:

[clee]

:D

I was going to say something like that but thought better of it ;)

The guy dropping this engine off is a Renault breaker .My Spider mate has bought a Williams lump .You want I should ask if he has any 172/182 blocks lying about ?
He should be here this afternoon .
