Imagine the following: You sell on ebay for 1 month. Sales go well, however, paypal is of course holding your money for 21 days in the beginning. You pay your ebay fees with your credit card and one week later paypal decides to shut you down for whatever reason. Now you paid your ebay fees with "good" money, while the "bad" money is still held hostage by paypal and MIGHT be paid to you after 180 days, or maybe not. In the worst case you would have sent items to your customers AND paid ebay their fees without ever getting your money. That is why I would always prefer to pay my fees with paypal, just to minimize worst case losses. |
