Re: Procedure for getting payment from Paypal?

On Fri, 09 Mar 2007 13:16:39 -0800, Jack Crane <jdcrane7@xxxxxxxxx>
defied the laws of time and space to say:

I just bought something from a first-time seller on eBay. I paid with a
Visa card thru Paypal. He wants to know how to receive the money from
Paypal. Please tell me so I can tell him.

It's difficult to say without more information, but I'll hazard a guess
that he has a personal account with Paypal; he'll have to upgrade to a
business account in order to accept paypal payments.

He probably won't want to, because business accounts charge a fee to
receive money while personal accounts are free. However, a year or two
ago ebay made it a policy that a seller who accepts paypal must accept
credit cards through paypal.

Of course this is just speculation, and it may be a different problem
entirely.
