If I heard correctly I believe that paypals fees are about 3%? Isn't that pretty much in line with what credit cards have been charging forever? I recently declined a purchase because the seller wanted me to send the money as a gift. I also can't stand it when people post one price and then ask for more when asked if they accept paypal, that's also against paypals TOS. It just isn't worth it to me to do business with people like that.

My paypal account has been a merchant account for around 10 years when I used to sell stuff on ebay often. Its been some time since I've sold through Paypal but at most its 5%

They vary based on the plan and volume. Low-volume sellers, which includes just about everyone in the herp hobby, will pay 3-4% if charged per swipe, otherwise there's usually a monthly nut and the transaction fee is 2-3%. A high-volume seller (*cough* WalMart *cough*) pays about 1%.

Oh... and add 2% if you want to accept AmEx.

The gift option aside, the OP sent the last payment back in May and it's now December. So I don't think PP would accept a chargeback anyway due to the timeframe.
