PayPal price increases.

Just see that PayPal are now going to charge for 'Friends and Family' payments.
If I'm reading correctly there will be a $4.99US payment required from the Sender (for International payments).
Glad I sold my stuff on here recently and escaped this extra charge.

Looks like it only applies to sending money overseas.....

@Blackie is in NZ. So, any transactions on here will apply to him.

Understand. I think he might have edited the original post as well. I am sure it originally did not include the part about the fee only applying to international. Initially upon reading the post I shit my pants .

Yeah, it seems a bit harsh given I can post soap to NZ for not much more than that.

It seems a bit extreme TBH

It won't affect me now as I've sold all the razors I wanted to (to Aussie members), and it would have meant a price increase to them.
But still, it's a bit miserable of PayPal.
Now I'm down to just 3 razors...the Mamba, and the Ikon 101 as my daily drives, plus my nice wee ball-end Tech that I take away when off truck driving.
@nsavage is right...I did a quick edit. It seems (for example) it won't affect an Aussie member sending a FF payment to another Aussie member.
