Paypall question. Help

[sm500]

Just a question really about paypall and how to use it safetly. i have some bits that i would like to sell on here and paypall seams the norm way to pay, how do you get round the pay pall fees? how does somebody make a payment into my pay pall account?
I have had it set up for yrs and brought things with it on ebay but have never sold on ebay so am a bit unsure, i have not got my paypall verifid to a bank account yet does this need to be done before i can take a payment? Thanks

You can get around the fees by paying as a gift, but by doing this you lose all your paypal protection

If you want to be fully protected by paypal the only option is to pay the fees yourself

Payments are made by the buyer and they use your paypal email address to transfer the money to your account

Not sure on the verified account query you have, my account is verified & works, dunno if an non verified account works the same or not

Thanks Andy, i will look into sorting out my verified status by adding bank account to paypall, am guessing that not having an account verified to a bank account i can not transfer money out of paypall to bank..

from what i remember, to become verifie they take a quid and leave a code which you use, then your verified. takes 2-3 days though
