I have recently set up a PayPal merchant account so that we could sell
our CDs through our website. The price allows for the charge that we
have to pay and also covers postage. We have only had one order so far,
from the USA (we are UK-based) and that went very smoothly. What's more,
the recipient of the CD emailed a lovely review of the CD.

Hi all,
Does anyone on the list in Europe use PayPal to receive funds from
customers? I need to send some money to an individual in Hungary and I
have not used PayPal internationally before. He needs to get a PayPal
account, but can anyone tell me if there are any hidden worries or
issues with using PayPal to move funds from the U.S. to European
countries? On paper it looks like the cheapest payment solution by
far. A bank transfer will have charges of $60 minimum (perhaps more:
my bank couldn't even say for sure), which in this case makes moving
funds pointless, while PayPal would require something along the lines
of $5 for the same amount. My only worry without experience in this
particular situation is that there are issues I don't know about.
Anyone with any suggestions? I'm sure this would be relevant to any of
the European makers if they wanted to accept PayPal.
Thanks,
Arle
