I thought it's free to receive payment with Paypal

Yes, I would either:

1) Decline it and specifically request they send you NON-CREDIT CARD Paypal or money order.
2) Open a 2nd Paypal account and upgrade that to a premiere account. So you now you'll have two Paypal accounts.

This is what I have, but most eBayers dont understand when I ask for a bank transfer etc instead of CC. I would make a lot more $$ if I didnt have those stupid fees.

As of a few months ago you can no longer specify non-cc Paypal 🙁

no it's not illegal. paypal is providing a service for you that you are paying for

yes, but it has to be tied to a different checking account.

Yes you can and Paypal allows this. You will need a separate email address and bank account though. Opening another bank account can usually be done in 5 minutes, just call your bank or credit union and ask their procedure.

alright will do, thanks for the replies! (heh i feel like i hijacked the threat)

You can have two accounts as has been stated. You can also revert back to Personal from premier. I did it once after I had accepted a CC payment.

How do you do this? I can't find that option in my profile. 😕


edit: btw, if you accidentally upgrade, I believe they only let you revert ONCE. Otherwise, you're stuck as a business acct so be careful!
