    Could someone provide a basic breakdown of how paypal fees work on the sellers side. I.e. how much extra do I need to ask for to make sure I don't lose money if they pay with a credit card, is there a fee associated with a payment made from a bank account, etc. Thanks a whole lot in advance.

    3% of whatever is coming in. So if you ask for 3.5% over what you are selling it at, you pretty much get all but a few pennies.

    if you become a verified user do you still have the fee's? I've never noticed fees when I recieved money.

    It's the price you pay to accept credit cards.
