wy_kid_wrangler04 Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 A few weeks back I remembering seeing a post saying we do not get charged a service fee using paypal on WTM. How do I get that to stop happening? I have made several transactions on here and I have been charged for each one. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsmom3tn Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Buyers don't get charged, bu sellers do. Some sellers have started asking their buyers to send money using the "personal" option, rather than purchase. If done this way, the seller is not charged a fee. However, there is no buyer or seller protection with the personal payment, so you may want to take that into consideration when using this option.

lovetobehome Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I posted this awhile back to try to explain... http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=126154 it is lengthy, but should help clear things up. As the seller, I specify that I PREFER no fee personal paypal, and I give brief instructions on how to do this ("Click on the PERSONAL tab above the box where you enter the amount to send, then click PAYMENT OWED") If someone doesn't want to do it this way, I don't refuse, but I do prefer the no fee option, and I usually use it when I am buying, as long as the buyer has a good reputation, and if it isn't a huge amount of money. If it is a newer seller or a large amount, I might send regular paypal for the protection. But 98% of the time, I use no fee personal paypal to save the other moms here some bucks. Paypal keeps changing things and keeps us all confused! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
