Semi-on topic. Paypal have apparently upped their percentage fee now. I was told it's 4% now for U.K, as opposed to the previous 3.4%.

Haha, I agree, just like the post office upping their prices too.

post office is slightly understandable due to sky high oil prices and the inflation rate.

but paypal are just dick weed's. why do they need more money? there not fighting inflation as they are taking a %age so the %age changes with inflation. and they have minimal oil use compared to post offices.

Had no idea on the P.O, but yup, PP have no need to take any more than they needed to.

there's nothing else really like paypal so there a monopoly business (ie they can charge a f*ck load and get away with it) same with ebay (they are both owned by the same people/company right?)

sorry for off topicness :')

Not sure if they're owned by the same company. Ebay is the worst too. I don't think I'll sell anything expensive on there again.

if i sell something over £60 on ebay i always ask if they will pay directly to paypal in return for a 3% reduction on the cost, yeah its not much but it saves us all alittle something! But if you do this dont bitch at them if they dont wanna :') i just wont include anything extra with the item.

Post office are cheeky too. 2nd class recorded has doubled in price!!! £3.15 now £6.30 - robbery.

As for paypal, yep, they can now do whatever they want and people will pay, this is why I don't use paypal anymore.

I pretty much send everything with courier these days, Royal Mail prices are ridiculous for a terrible service and no tracking either ..

I sent him over 1K worth of stuff and arrived like new no problems at all.
I now live in Liverpool and am good friends with him.

He also sent the mods many many messages regarding his account not being able to get into
his messages as he needs to send wheels to somebody and pay a guy some money.
But the ignored him completley.

He is stressing over this as he want's it sorted.
How can you call a guy a scammer when he get's hundreds of £ of biking gear to anodize each week?
