                    quick question.
if i set up m,y credit card to be able to pay for things through paypal. does this translate back to the card company as a payment of cash? therefore getting stung for a cash transaction fee? or will it be viewed as buying goods therefore at my current rate of 0%

 Since when? I regularly pay for items purchased on ebay using my credit card & I have never been charged a fee for doing so.0

            I think the dood who said "3.4% credit card fee" is referring to traders ACCEPTING payments via Paypal (merchant fee). I've never payed a fee for purchases with my CC company or Paypal.I used to have a signature but it disappeared and I just couldn't be bothered writing another, so please feel free to ignore this.0
