Wim,

 

that’s because they do not want you to. They have buried this one really, really deep: I think it is in your settings for your credit card, under ‚Automated Payments‘ or something like that.

 

I had no chance to find it myself, the guy on the Paypal phone hotline didn‘t have a clue and I finally found somebody in their chat who revealed this secret.

 

Best,

 

Helmut 



Hi Helmut,

How can you change that default setting for the exchange fee? I can't
find it on my account.

Helmut.. I see why I haven't noticed anything..
I don't normally do 5k @month via paypal, largely because I get money 
from a variety of sources, many of whom send checks, or even pay cash 
(getting to be a rare occasion). Moreover, many people (for their own 
reasons mostly, not mine)  send $ as friend where there are no fees.


in any case, the 2.9% doesn't bother me

you will not notice this, unless you do the math. I would have to look 
up their exact limits, but the principle is this:
You make less than $5000 in a month, they will charge you 2,9% the 
next month

Over $5,000 but under $20,000, the fee is 2,2%
Over $20,000, it‘s 1,9%
Bigshot sellers will save nothing from this, but the vast majority of 
Paypal clients will pay more. Small amounts for most single 
transactions, so small that most recipients won‘t even notice, but a 
very nice increase in revenue in the big scale.
And since we‘re at it: For those of you who make currency payments 
with Paypal, one thing you NEVER NEVER NEVER want to do is to allow 
Paypal to do the currency conversion for you.
This is of course their default setting for any payment, so you want 
to change this to ‚let the credit card company determine the exchange 
rate‘.
Here‘s why: Aside from their lousy exchange rate, which is much worse 
than the rate your credit card company gives you, Paypal charges an 
‚exchange fee‘, ranging from 4% to 8%, depending on currency, so you 
end up paying about 6-10% more, and that‘s serious money. Most credit 
card companies charge about 2% for the exchange, if you use a currency 
broker, you can bring this down to 0.3%.

Re: [MOPO] selling on everyone's fav ... eeeekbay

2021-04-22 Thread MPB warehouse
I stopped selling on ebay in 2005 and since then have only sold online 
via my site or Facebook posts (done lots of money by facebook)


When I sell on my own site, I have no fees other than paypal.


I couldn't be happier. Of course, I've had a serious internet presence 
since my first website in 1994 ( www.comic-art.com ) and so I was 
already positioned right to be able to go my own way.

Hi all,

As life rolls on, I have decided to start giving away / throwing away 
/ consigning / selling on eeekbay whatever I own ... that my wife and 
daughter are not interested in collecting / keeping, (which just 
happens to be damn near everything).


I looked into the transaction details on some items previously sold. I 
noticed what appears to be some accounting errors, so natch, I 
contacted and found out:


When a buyer pays for an item sold on eeekbay, they are (most likely) 
charged a local tax to be paid by the buyer, and that tax is also 
added to the final value of the item, and then the seller is charged 
whatever percentage fee on the added final value fee.

Sue is 100% correct.

"The percentage of what they take went up a bit and they take their fees on the 
item price + sales tax + shipping."

Besides the above, just think about all of the additional $$ from interest 
which they're now making, holding your money hostage for days before slowly 
dishing it out to you.

I'm just waiting for their next money grab.

THE EBAY BANK!!  Where you will be forced to open an account and all of your 
money from sales will now be deposited there, where you can later transfer it 
to your own bank.  Or just keep it there as many will do, so ebay can use it 
any way they wish and/or gather even more interest.

consigning / selling on eeekbay whatever I own ... that my wife and daughter

I looked into the transaction details on some items previously sold. I noticed

When a buyer pays for an item sold on eeekbay, they are (most likely) charged a

Creative accounting at its best. It’s like charging a fee on postage costs.

Subject: Re: [MOPO] selling on everyone's fav ... kbay

Hi all,

As life rolls on, I have decided to start giving away / throwing away / 
consigning / selling on eeekbay whatever I own ... that my wife and daughter 
are not interested in collecting / keeping, (which just happens to be damn near 
everything).

I looked into the transaction details on some items previously sold. I noticed 
what appears to be some accounting errors, so natch, I contacted and found out:

When a buyer pays for an item sold on eeekbay, they are (most likely) charged a 
local tax to be paid by the buyer, and that tax is also added to the final 
value of the item, and then the seller is charged whatever percentage fee on 
the added final value fee.

Creative accounting?

New math?

Thoughts?
