ElCerritoCoins Valued Member United States 63 Posts	Posted 08/08/2007 6:07 pm Paypal is just too high - 2.9% +.30! Any good alternatives for a seller? I have to offer either paypal or a merchant account..... Ive seen a few for around 2.5 but I may as well use paypal for that. Any suggestions please let me know :-) Report this Post to the Staff

Ferret Lord Valued Member United States 218 Posts	Posted 08/08/2007 7:27 pm Paypal may be high for some costs but they are because they know what it costs to set up a merchant account on your own. 2.5% is just the start. you also have monthly fees too. Although I truly hate dealing with EBay/Paypal, I haven't found another way for a small business on ebay to accept credit cards. There are a large amount of people that wont even look at a listing without Paypal being accepted. Report this Post to the Staff
ElCerritoCoins Valued Member United States 63 Posts	Posted 08/08/2007 8:17 pm Steve, You are so right! People really do not want to buy without paypal- they've got a corner on the market and know it! So does ebay- their fees are astronomical! I recently signed up with a different auction site (which I wont list because I'm less than 50 posts) but there is no traffic on it. Ive got Morgan dollars listed at $12 buy it now and they cant even sell.... lol its crazy :-) I want to mix their seller fees with ebay's buyers! Report this Post to the Staff

I think they should have something where you can pay from your credit card, would be easier too. Report this Post to the Staff
