Many of us use ppcalc.com to calculate our paypal fees. While some members will include that in the total cost, other members will ask for the buyer to figure that amount in.
If the seller requests that you send your payment as paypal goods, but requests paypal fees to be sent, use this step by step guide.
A. Your country - choose your country of origin
B. Your monthly sales volume - keep this as the default
C. Payment sent in - choose the currency you'll be sending the payment in
D. Payment received in - choose the currency the person will receive the payment
E. Type of payment - should either be Purchase Payment (Domestic) if you live in the same country or Purchase Payment (cross-border) if you live outside the seller's country.
1) If the seller resides in a different country, and wants you to send in their currency.
The seller tells you to send 10.99 GBP, then use the reverse calc section.
I should send the seller 11.64 GBP
2) The seller resides in the same country, and wants to send in your currency.
The seller tells you to send 10.99 GBP, then use the reverse calc section.
I should send the seller 11.58 GBP
3) The seller resides in a different country and I have an existing balance in my account in my currency.
The seller tells you to send 10.99 GBP, then use the reverse calc section.
I actually send the seller $11.75 out of my balance.
