But if you really were sending money as a true gift (and feel free to try out the option with me :mrgreen: ), would you want the recipient to pay the transaction fee?
If it's a purchase, then the seller should absolutely pay it - it's a cost of doing business.
But depending on the purpose of the transfer of cash, PayPal is just giving you the option to choose, as not all transactions are equal.
I don't think there's anything nefarious about it. ;-)
Shall I PM my PayPal address now so you can begin the gifting??? :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
You may pass on the transaction fee to me.
Just to see how that works.
