This was only for £15 as well.[/quote] never been given that option before, unless people buying stuff off me are paying paypal charges for me and not telling me, which i doubt although my last sale was more than 2 weeks ago...

Lysdexia Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 (edited) Just to confirm that today, I had a PayPal transaction take place (funds paid to me) with [b]no [/b]resulting charges. When on the send money page there are two sub-tabbed options 1. Purchase 2. Personal By choosing personal>other the result was [b]no [/b]charge. I hope this is of help to some.

mike257 Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 With reference to the pictures being trickled out gradually, can I propose that nobody buy this bass for at least a fortnight On a serious note, gorgeous bass, so have a free bump on my behalf.

However this isn't a thread about paypal or exchange rates so a quick bump for another gorgeous [s]girl[/s] bass... yes definitely bass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
