Paypal

I am just wondering why people that sell stuff on Ebay Germany do not want to take Paypal, its so hard to transfer the funds.
Thanks, MIke

Because its much easier to rip you off through funds transfers over seas? I hate paypal, though. You gotta pay ebays shitty exaggerated fees, then you MUST accept paypal. Then paypal gives their shitty fees. They are double dipping, and it sucks dick.

If you ask some buyers sometimes they will take the money without going thru paypal.

How do you buy anything in Germany, it is nearly impossible to transfer funds to bank account in Germany.

Ebay and Paypal didn't used to be in bed together. There used to be more options for payment too from what I remember back in 01'. The fees have gotten out of hand. Paypal does however make it really easy to pay people across the country. It has even made it easy for people who owe my money to pay me. They'll just put money in my Paypal account, although depending on the person I sometimes have payment placed directly into my bank account.

How long has everyone been a member of paypal?

Paypal member since 2001

2001 as well. It is lame and expensive but it's so easy, money orders and wires are a pain in the ass as well. Buy local pay cash keep it simple?

i meant ask the seller if he will take cash if you are local.

Most people here in Germany don't have paypal because you loose so much damn money. here in Germany a bank transfer is still FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!-- and is just as easy to do.

thats why.

If I was in Germany I would not have to ask if they take cash.
I mean whenever I but stuff in Germany Ebay is a pain to pay for it.

Thanks, Mike

There are a couple guys here from germany maybe they can help you out. And since they are on this forum and people have probably bought things from them so they may have a good transaction history.
