    Maybe if paypal were clearer that only paypal direct transfers are guaranteed to be received into a basic account without incurring any charges it might be a bit easier.

    However, in this instance the seller is still wrong as ebay do make it very clear that a seller must accept all forms of paypal payment if the I accept paypal box is ticked.

    Yvonne, that is a good outcome. You have probably done the seller a favour as she was running the risk of negs and non performing seller complaints which would have been a shame with her feedback.
