Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Is my PayPal broke?
Is it just me or can you no longer send payments as a gift to avoid the paypal fee?
Normally I wouldn't mind paying it but I don't see the point since paypal has let me get sodomized on every bad transaction I have EVER had.
Maybe I am doing it wrong but I wouldn't doubt the giant misquito changed that policy as soon as they could.

I just had someone send me money the other day and it was working then. Maybe there is some updates or something going on.

Just a point - the buyer doesn't pay the fee. It is deducted from the money paid to the seller. Realistically, the fee is minor (approx $30/$1000)...and, for most of us, that's cheaper than having to pay to take credit cards directly (there is still a transaction fee...plus a monthly charge for the service). So, while nickel and diming PayPal might seem like a fine idea, who will get screwed if they change their policies or fees accordingly?

Nevermind! I guess my head is broke today. It doesn't require a fee when I use my bank account but does when I switch it to my check card. Hmm.

Sounds like a personal account - I'm pretty sure they can receive (at least a certain number of) cash payments for free.

I hear ya Harald. Normally I don't nickel and dime them but this is for a larger amount of money (to me) and having done nothing for me in the past, nor would I request anything from them in this situation, I just couldn't justify paying that fee. But it does make sense if PayPal gets charged from the CC company.

There is a new law that goes into affect soon that caps the fees that can be charged to use your card. This has got banks in a frenzy to find ways to make up that money.
