Wanted: someone with a PayPal merchant/premier account. Here's the situation: I'm selling some stuff (private, not an auction) to a list member who wants to pay with PayPal so she can use her credit card. Because I only have a regular (non-merchant) account with PayPal, I can't accept credit card payments, only money that originates from a PayPal account or bank account. I'd rather not upgrade to a merchant account, as then PayPal takes 2.9% (+30 cents, I think) from each incoming transfer that I receive, and I don't use PayPal enough to justify that at this point in time.
My question: Is anyone here who *can* receive credit card payments via PayPal willing to act as a go-between by receiving the money from her and then transferring it to me via PayPal? (I can't receive credit card payments directly, but receiving money from a PayPal account should be fine, I think.) This isn't a Nigerian bank scam, and I'd be more than happy to reimburse you the fees PayPal charges to receive funds, plus, say, a couple of rolls of film of your choice. Thanks, chris
