Charging $20 for using pay pal in underhanded.

No it isn't.

First, it wasn't $20.00, it was $10.00.

In your rush to blast me, you should get your facts straight first.

Second, the eBay auction that was pulled made NO mention of ANYONE
paying ANY Paypal fees.

Third, I put that is a FOR SALE post on the radio groups in error. I
did not know it was against the rules. When someone told me it was, I
retracted the statement in the same post.

Now, I've seen others charge buyers the PAYPAL fee and get away with it,
that's why I thought it OK. DOes that make it right, NO, and as I said,
I immediately corrected my error.

However, it may be against eBay and PAYPAL rules to ask for the PAYPAL
fee, but how is it underhanded?

Keep trying, I can keep this thread going forever....

Let me get this straight. Ebay should make a special exception just for you so
you can continue to **** in all the pools. You're well on your way to being a
power seller.

For the life of me I just don't see how you got any of that from what I
said above. I don't know what a "power seller" is, but it sounds from
your tone that it is not a good thing.

I thought I wrote in easily understandable English. Special exception
for WHAT?

I give up...

Dan you obviously don't know when your chain is being yanked.
Ignore the chilish jackasses and they will fret and go away.

You would know if you had taken my advice and read the rules
at ebay and PayPal. It takes less than an hour, and many folks
here will be glad to answer specific questions.

Or you can learn by having your auctions cancelled and wondering why.

Yep, that ONE auction was cancelled.

First and LAST time that will happen.

They still have not responded to my inquiry, but HAVE credited the
listing fees, so this WAS a very cheap education.

Re-listed the item on eBay yesterday, and STAYED FAR AWAY from these
groups. Item sold last night using Buy It Now for a very good price.

Proving as opthers have said here, that you don't need newsgroup
postings for an item to sell well on eBay.

So let's get this straight...

You WON'T read the eBay/PayPal documentation the find out what the
rules are (we know that because you said you don't know what a
powerseller is, and it is impossible to find out the rules without
learning that)

But you are 100% sure that you won't ever break one.

Riiiiight.

You will be back, ****ing and moaning about another rat scumbag
dropping a dime on your newsgroup listings.

My eBay feedback is excellent, and I've sold NUMEROUS items there
without ever having a problem.

Guess I don't know the rules.

I MEANT that even though after all this debate, it is still not clear
what eBay allows as to newsgroups, or more importantly, what the
newsgroups allow, I will simply NOT EVER post another FA post on the
newsgroups again. That should make everyone very happy.
