I'll never "upgrade" to Business Acct; Greedy bums

I wish I knew of a good no-fee alternative to PayPal, one that never uses credit cards so there would be no need for high fees. .... ....... .... I'll never let them collect fees from me for receiving funds. I'll never "upgrade."

This is what I recently sent a buyer of mine: Ebay’s fees are high enough. I don’t have to pay PayPal fees if I have a personal PayPal account, which can’t accept receipts funded by credit cards. I once figured out that if, for example, I listed something on eBay for a $6 opening bid and it sold for $6.00, the combined eBay-PayPal fees (assuming one had a non-personal PayPal account) would be $1.14 (19% of $6)!!! For a $50 opening bid and sale, it would be a combined $6.15 fee (12.3%)!!! No wonder many people call it feeBay instead of eBay. (And those numbers are for items that sell. The percents are higher if you factor in the times there are no-sales, and Gallery fees.)
