I believe if you send it as a ‘personal gift’ there are no charges.

edit..... what he said ^^^

BUT if like me your default paypal charge is to a credit card, then look for the option to check where it says "I will pay the fee" and automatically your charge is increased so that you are paying the commission and not the guy you are sending the money to.

Anyway, like has already been said, sending as a gift is the way to do it, and this comment only applies if your paypal charges go to a credit card and not a direct debit from your bank.

i know the gift option but if it go's belly up im blooterd and have lost £270 as you cant claim it back as its a gift how much would i need to pay for him to get the full 270 with out him taking the hit

theres no fees if you have funds in ya paypal account

if you havent and you pay by card then fees apply but it gives
you an option wether you or the other person shud pay the fee
its about £6.00 for the 270 sent

As far as I know you can't claim it back anyway if you are sending funds without an invoice. If it is for a purchase, then get him to raise a paypal invoice if you want any kind of protection.

As above, when you send a payment, I'm sure you are given the option of who pays the fees. If you say you will pay them, it just adds the amount onto your transaction and takes it from whatever funding source you are using.

think thats the way i will go and pay the hit rather than send it as a gift
