when did this become acceptable? its lame as hell, i will never ever ask someone to pay those fees. yes, it sucks they take them, but get over it, thats how it goes. its so annoying to have prices and shit figured out with a person and then have to figure out the percentage to add on. just stop.

Tgr and NS have always asked people to pay there fees
but most people put it in their first post that buyers pay the fees along with shipping
Stop bitching about it

always? dunno about that, ive been selling on NS for years and just started noticing it becoming standard practice, shipping is obvious, but paypal fees is lame.

Its been around for quite some time dude, if you want people to jack up their prices sure get rid of paypal fees.... but i may be speaking for myself, I try to give real decent prices but if ive gotta eat another 3% on top of good deals then is it really worth it?

I think its a smart practice, i would say its new to NS but its been around on TGR longer, but if you sell some thing its just smarter so you don't take the paypal payments in the ass. If you say shipped then it should be expected that this means thats the final price including shipping and paypal but plus shipping you should just expect to pay paypal fees too.

^ i agree with that.
If i am already giving a bangor deal, i will just tack on the extra 3%. If it is just meh, i will ask for the additional 3%

dood ur such a fucking noob. go on any other place where people sell and all sellers will require people to pay the paypal fees. get over it dood its part of the price u pay for being able to use paypal. do a money order or something if u really hate it that much

did this boner just call me a noob??? ha.
my point is, if no one cares because its only 3% then why do sellers care so much?

well if you look at post count.. you are the noob lol but Ive never heard of him and Ive seen you all over ns..
but I have no idea why they care so much.. if they needed the $2 so much they should have gone to ebay, not ns. I dont really think its the extra few dollars that bothers me.. it just seems kinda low to require the payment..like breaking common courtesy you know?
