I understand what you are saying Chatter, but we all, as sellers, have fees. I don't ever know exactly what my seller's final fees will be with paypal and ebay. I estimate an aproximate and that amount is added into the cost of the item. It is part of my selling costs. Sometimes, it may be a little over and other times a little under, but it will average out. I do the same with postage. I think it would have been more fitting if this fellow had either stated in his auction that there would be a certain % added at the end for his surcharge if you used paypal or do as I suggested.
