Message	Just checked my paypal account and found out that they have been charging extra for payments that come in from Canada, even if the person is paying in dollars. If you use paypal to get money from people in other countries, just beware that you are paying 4% (not 3%) to do business with them. Ebay used to be fun, but its getting to the point where it just costs too much to sell anything on there anymore (Overall close to 20 percent of selling price now). I think its high time that somebody comes up with "Z-Bay" or something to compete with those bastards. Thanks for letting me vent... I feel much better now! Enjoy your weekend.
