Here is an example of PayPal and trying to make a Buck. I meen that literally.
I sold a Western Digital 7200 40 gig drive on Ebay. Listed on Ebay Sold for $109.00 + $10.00s&h -$3.25 Ebay charge -3.75 PayPal Charge for payment -4.00 Shipping -5.00 Drop Ship Charge from suplier -2.00 Credit Card Charge from supplier. That is $101.00 - $100.00 (Cost from supplier) I make a dollar. I need to drop the PayPal charges.
