The Wholesale Forums

From a company saying they dropship, I asked if they took PP, she said yes, I said I would pay with Paypal and she said we would both loose out as the fees would need paid, I can't pay any other way so I said add fees on at her end and I would do the same at my end, but If they take PP then that would already be included in the price. Is that normal, I have come across another guy that added extra on for paying with PP. I thought it would just be easier to have a final price and that was that.

You cant include paypal in the price if your wholesaling normally. If someone is ordering £10,000 worth of stock and pay with bank trasnfer, the supplier will receive £10,000. If someone pays £10,000 via paypal they will get receive around £9,700 which is a big difference.

Ok, never thought of it like that, Thanks.

No Problem Don't let them rip you off on the paypal charges though. It should never be more than 4% and if they are a big seller should be less (as their fees will be lower).

It shouldn't really be more than 1/2 that. They will have merchant rates like us.

It depends whether they normally accept paypal or whether they only take the odd order with it. But yeah should be less than 4% anyway.

I found the price but I have to add on VAT to the price listed, I hate numbers
