I wonder if pairs of people do this: I have a personal account and paypal takes no cut in money i receive. But then i cannot receive CC payment. If on the other hand, i upgrade my account, they take a cut whether the sender sent it from bank/paypal funds or using a CC.
I doubt if they will allow me to have 2 accounts. Do people team up and make best of the situation ? If buyer agrees to send via funds, use personal account otherwise use merchant account pushing the 3% to the buyer if necessary. Bookkeepping gets complicated but atleast buyers get more choice which i guess is good for seller. I wonder if one can make allowing use of one's merchant account into a small business within paypal :) On Wed, Jan 23, 2002 at 09:22:17PM -0600, John Mustarde wrote: > On Wed, 23 Jan 2002 09:28:03 -0800, you wrote: > > >That's what I meant by cash ... that you can get your hands on real > >money, one way or another, simply and easily. > > > > Cash?
