    Some people just have it sent as a "Personal Payment Owed" that way there are no fees taken out. That said if they use it too often PayPal will eventually catch on and lock down the account.
    Not True. Talked to PayPal on Phone about this and they said nothing like that will happen.

    Personal Payments is just what is says, sending money to people you know. Ive send over 200 Personal Payments to people i know personally and nothing has happened.

    I'd like to be 201. My name is Wes and no matter what you hear, it's not all true. Unless it's all good. Then it is.
    I may not be very smart, but what if I am?

    Forgot to Add that use personal Payment at caution

    The buyer can no longer dispute the payment if the goods are never sent, because in paypal's eyes no good were part of the transaction. So be sure you know the person VERY well or you mine as well send money in a envelope and hope you get your goods.

    Just in case you missed my humor, which has, inexplicably, happened in the past, I was making an attempt at humor.

    I believe what you have said. No problem there.

    Thought so.

    I do enjoy making people think, but not so much when I'm trying to make them laugh. It is difficult to think and laugh simultaneously.

    For me anyway. Then again, thinking is tough most of the time.

    Re: PayPal fees

    Hi,

    I've only sold one snake via paypal so far.

    I paid the fees and made sure the buyer sent it as a transaction so that both sides had a clear understanding of what was going on.

    I figured the fees were fair enough considering the simplicity of paying seemed to be an important point for the buyer.

    I have no idea how much ( or how little ) protection each side has through using paypal as it was a live animal sale though. Anyone have any input on that?
