[SEL] [SPAM] Re: Brass Fuel Feeder for Bessemer Kerosene Engine - eBayWierdness

OK, you guys got me to wondering, so looked at $1500 worth of buying and
selling over the last 6 months .. I can not find any charges for paypal, I
paid the exact amount using paypal and I have received the exact amount I
sold for, so what am I missing. I did think there was a 3% fee for using
paypal, I know they are making money some where from it.

Hi Steve,

Yep, that's one of those little "enhancements" of the "eBay experience" that
they've added.  The last time that I sold stuff on eBay they weren't so
overbearing.  I was able to accept PayPal in a manner consistent with my
account (i.e. no credit cards) and everyone was happy.  Then eBay got
greedy.
It's their choice.  My choice is to keep 'em out of my pockets to the
maximum
extent possible.

BTW, I listed that Cub Cadet on http://www.ihcubcadet.com and will put it on
http://www.ihregistry.com/ later.  Thanks again for that lead.

See ya,  Arnie
