Do you use the GIFT option to save 3%? I would never send money as a gift that was for a product. If paypal is the only option listed I will gladly pay +3% to keep my ability to get the money back if the deal goes south. Even if it's a trusted seller? |

Like I said if needed I will pay the extra 3%. In fact I would rather go out of my way and get a USPS money order. EDIT> I assume this is for a Gun related purchase.

IMO anything a few hundred dollars or more is suspicious. I mean, who gives that kind of gift to someone? ETA: Paypal is kinda stupid for not capping the limit on "gift" mode. It's rumored on Ebay's Seller Central that PayPal is going to re-vamp their gift option next year. I would not be surprised to see them allow "gifts" only to .org addresses and those with donation accounts set-up in advance. I'd not blame them either. They are getting hosed from a business standpoint. I don't think it has as much to do with folks paying for prohibited items as it does with the bottom-line. Let's face it they lose $$$ no matter if "gift" money is sent to pay for a prohibited or non-prohibited item. |
