khariV Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 As long as you set up the payment as "send money to friends and family," there's no charge from PayPal. You can then transfer the money into your bank account that's linked to your PayPal account but that part can take 3-4 days sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnarlyCarl Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 Just make sure the buyer sends you money with the "Friends and Family” option and you won't have to pay a fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually use pay pal money as an excuse to buy more tools from my pay pal account, i guess its my own little tool ponzi scheme 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMack37 Posted January 20, 2017 Report Share Posted January 20, 2017 I think the fees are 3% if sent as non-F&F. A lot of people will not send money F&F because it's a "Gift" there is no buyer protection. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted March 8, 2017 Report Share Posted March 8, 2017 It is easier to transfer from bank account to paypal then to transfer from paypal to bank account. I have yet to unlock the transfer from paypal to bank account feature. When I bought something from @SevenOddosFence I was fairly new to paypal and I still am. It was fairly easy to pay the money. As far as I know there were no extra fees involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your whole paypal has to be linked to one of your bank accounts, address everything, you have to be fully verified through paypal before you can do a transfer to your bank.

Maybe one of these days i will. I mostly use paypal for spending money. Get a little here or there from selling stuff then invest what I earn back into tools. Kinda gives me a general idea on how much I can spend so I don't spend too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T75R Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 You can also use a credit card as a buyer and there's a small fee from PayPal. But atleast you get a little protection from your credit card in case the worst happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
