PayPal
Just putting this out there for info. Recent changes with PP have been cat n mouse like. If you’ve ever seen our sale ads, along with personal checks always being welcome from car people, for PayPal we request GIFT payment, which is an option through PP. The main reason for our PP request , other than the obvious of receiving our due, is it eliminates a scam that we suffered through.
Here is how it goes. Person buys something, uses PayPal payment protection, which charges the seller a fee. Buyer states there is something wrong and wants their money back. PayPal puts an immediate hold on funds in your account. Buyer is instructed to return goods, which are sent back , but instead of the goods being shipped back, just something that weighs as much as the original goods. As soon as it’s shipped back, the $$ is returned to the buyer and the seller ends up without the goods and without the $$, and it’s their word against yours.
It happened to us on a shipment to Paris, and we got nicked for over $500 with no recourse whatsoever.
After that, I said never again. We are ( almost) never in a big rush for $$ but as a convenience , PayPal is great for both buyer and seller as long as sent as GIFT. AND, also important, if you are dealing with someone you can trust.
So, if you have read this far, PP keeps changing the format to make your payment to friends or family, or GIFT, so it’s still there, but now you may need to look for it a bit more. Thanks!

Re: PayPal
On a slightly related situation. I received a notice today, my account was going to be suspended due to possible fraudulent use. Looked very real. 2 places to link to paypal. I went to google to get to my paypal account directly (not with their provided links) Nothing in my account about a problem or suspension. This pfish got away.Dropacent wrote: ↑Sun Aug 15, 2021 12:54 pmJust putting this out there for info. Recent changes with PP have been cat n mouse like.

Re: PayPal
Its not just PayPal that does this. I had an eBay buyer in Italy that gamed the system to cheat me out of $200.00 plus shipping by claiming a defect with no photos or any proof of any kind. He kept the item & got his money back. I lost the item, the shipping fee & the money. Ebay has a customer satisfaction policy that is implemented out of the seller's hide with no practical way to appeal. I closed my store and no longer sell on eBay.

Re: PayPal
As for as eBay goes Seller's should set their return policy as "No Returns". Here are the options
When you sell on eBay, you need to state whether you accept returns or not, and if so, under what conditions. For example, you might assert who pays for return shipping or that you’re willing to accept returns for a specific period of time after a sale.
Whatever you decide your policy is, it needs to be clearly specified in your listings.
If your policy is to accept returns, you can set up rules that automate the way that you manage different parts of the return process.
For example, you can create rules to:
- Accept some returns automatically, while continuing to process others manually
- Refund the buyer automatically and allow them to keep the item if the return shipping cost is higher than the item’s cost
- Provide different return addresses for different items
Handling some returns automatically not only saves you time, it’s also great customer service: the buyer gets their return request sorted right away. Maybe a reasonable idea for Bic Pens 20years ago - too many scammers now

Re: PayPal
That’s very incorrect advice, Frank. PayPal is completely separate from eBay. Marking things “no returns “ has no affect whatsoever as far as PayPal is concerned. I’m not here to debate 0r explain PayPal OR eBay, just to ‘splain why sellers ask for $$ with no strings attached. It isn5 geeed or trying to squeeze every penny. It’s for protection. AGAIN, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT THE SELLER, I’d BE SURe TO SEND IT THE REGULAR METHOD FOR PROTECTION
Don’t feel sorry for PayPal, they make millions from the “float” of these gift transactions. Nothing is free, and they aren’t a charity, but they do not lose $$

Re: PayPal
On a different direction, New Zealand has for many years been used as a bit of an experimental place for banking methods and systems (we had EFTPOS/ATM cards a long time before they were common elsewhere for example).
Now, 'personal cheques' (checks in the US) have been phased out. They are no longer issued or accepted by any bank because "no one uses them and they cost too much to process". Both points can be demonstrably proven as false - but so what, the change has been made. Read - another step in the move to eliminate cash completely so all finance is 'online'.
YOU will be next!

Re: PayPal
Putting No Returns in your add? Paypal doesn't care. It's buyer protection policy trumps everything.
Ebay no longer owns paypal, and will eventually be terminating the ability to use it to purchase on their platform using it.

Re: PayPal
From a UK journalist:
"
Online marketplace eBay will now pay its sellers directly rather than through online payment giant PayPal under new rules which came into effect on 1 June, marking an end to a 19-year partnership. Buyers can still use PayPal to purchase items, but the selling process now takes place solely via eBay’s managed payments system from start to finish. eBay says the new system is simpler, more convenient and gives buyers more payment options. But Which? has spoken to one eBay user who is ditching the marketplace, after experiencing delayed payments under the new arrangement. Here, Which? looks at how the changes will affect buyers and sellers plus what protections eBay’s new system has.
Sellers Sellers will now be paid directly into their bank account and will have to manage their payments there instead of through PayPal. eBay selling fees are now automatically deducted from earnings at the time of sale and regardless of how the buyer pays. Seller payouts should now be consistently initiated Monday through Friday, within two business days of order confirmation. Sellers will no longer have PayPal fees, meaning the only charge will be eBay’s flat rate of 12.8% of the total sale plus a fixed fee of 30p, for all sales under £2,500. The old system was 10% for eBay, plus PayPal’s fees, plus 30p. Buyers Under the new system, there are more options for buyers, who can now pay with credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, and PayPal Credit, eBay says. eBay and PayPal have agreed to keep PayPal as a payment option for customers until July 2023 when its agreement with eBay runs out.

What have eBay users said? The changes haven’t been welcomed by some eBay users. We spoke to one eBay seller who waited a week for money for an item she sold to be deposited into her account. ‘I have no wish to sell there again’

Re: PayPal
Personally, being just a hobbyist and not a businessman, if I felt uneasy about a transaction to the point that I thought I needed buyer / seller protection, I'd probably reconsider and skip the transaction altogether.

Re: PayPal
It’s unfortunate since we all are pretty much friends and family here....
It’s almost insulting for someone not to trust enough to want buyer protection for a fee paid by the seller.
Basically taking money out of the seller’s pocket and giving it to whoever gets rich at PayPal.
People have a hard time justifying the cost of shipping sometimes but they can take money from a seller to give to PayPal without thinking twice.

Re: PayPal
I was disappointed that to continue keeping my money in the PayPal account they want my SS number and an official photo ID. I'm not willing to do that so I have them send a check but it defeats the convenience for me not to have the money sitting there. I'm not sure the State wants me to copy my drivers license.
When did I do that?

Re: PayPal
It is my understanding that funds received via PayPal that are classified as a "gift" or "friends and family" transaction bypass 1099-K reporting.
Currently, the threshold for 1099-K reporting by third party payment processors is $20,000 and 200 transactions.
For tax year 2022, the 1099-K reporting threshold is $600 and no minimum amount of transactions.
In my opinion, anyone who has an inordinate number of "gift" or "friends and family" PayPal receipts may trigger a red flag and those transactions may ultimately be subject to 1099-K reporting. Again, this is just my opinion.
Regarding an eBay seller's return policy: even if an eBay seller's policy for a particular listing is no returns, per eBay's return and refund policies a buyer may return an item for a refund if it arrives damaged, does not match the description in the listing or is the wrong item.
Of course, buyers can game eBay's return policies. For example, if the buyer claims that an item arrived damaged, there is really no proof that it actually did arrive damaged. It is possible that a buyer who has remorse and changed their mind about buying an item intentionally damaged the item in order to return it for a refund.
Note that the eBay buyer is required to actually return the item in order to receive a refund. The seller is not required to issue a refund until they have received the returned item.

Re: PayPal
There is also a subtlety in an eBay transaction that may have been over looked. Several months ago eBay changed its transaction process in that the transfer of funds (payments) were externally transacted between the accounts the buyer & seller had with the "third party's network" (PayPal, Credit Card..). What showed up previously on the PayPal side was you as the seller with the actual buyers name. Now that transactions is between eBay as the seller and the buyer as before. Now eBay depositing money into the actual seller's account becomes a transfer like to Family & Friends? Having said that, I have no idea what that makes eBay a "third party network" as it passes funds to the sellers bank account. But what it looks like some loophole where all the seller transactions are between the "third Party", PayPal for example, and eBay. So eBay gets the 1099-K? .
Now that Transfer of money, eBay to seller's bank account, may fall under a different Tax Rule, cash transaction reporting. Bottom line, there is no way the IRS going to be able to audit all 1099-K's. The party that sends the 1099-K needs your TIN (social security number if not a business). If you look at the attached form the IRS may have a threshold set on the values in Box 3 and Box 4 to trigger an audit.
Now the good news if you get a 1099-K. The amount on the 1099-K gets reported on Schedule C, another Tax Form. Here you get to report Business Expenses So save all your receipts for that Trip to swap meets , travel, lodging, meals etc as a business expense - Hershey here I come

Re: PayPal
Paypal screwed me too many times. VISA, MC, or check is the only way I do business now. An organization I belong to went PP or check, but they prefer PP. They said checks all have to be entered manually and they will take them if necessary. I sent them a check. Maybe they need a new processor.

Re: PayPal
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PayPal
Established in 1998 as Confinity, PayPal went public through an IPO in 2002. It became a wholly owned subsidiary of eBay later that year, valued at $1.5 billion. In 2015, eBay spun off PayPal to eBay's shareholders and PayPal became an independent company again. The company was ranked 134th on the 2021 Fortune 500 of the largest United States corporations by revenue.
''''
On January 31, 2018, eBay announced that "After the existing eBay-PayPal agreement ends in 2020, PayPal will remain a payment option for shoppers on eBay, but it won't be prominently featured ahead of debit and credit card options as it is today. PayPal will cease to process card payments for eBay at that time." The company will "instead begin working with Amsterdam-based Adyen".

Re: PayPal
As government gets bigger, and controls more of our lives, we may in this hobby have to do more bartering & trading. Government is working hard to make us become a cashless society. Biden is right now working towards giving the IRS full power to look into our bank accounts at anytime for unreported income. All this leads us to a tougher time buying & selling antique car parts. I hate to think we will all need a card reader to have a swap meet booth, but it may come, and faster than any of us would care to believe. Lets face it, anyone under the age of 40 probably carries little to no cash already. Big government wont have a fight pushing through a cashless society. Get ready, we will all soon be paying taxes on all these parts & cars as they change hands.

Not to mention.., Mr Biden is pushing a real good one.., lowering the inheritance tax from $650,000.00 down to $450,000.00. He is stating there are not enough wealthy to tax. These are combined gross assets.., so now they are reassessing properties, cars, etc. Estate planning has never been more important

Re: PayPal
Think your blaming the "man" instead of his constituents. While the promise was not to raise Taxes (assumed to be Tax percent on income) of the so called "poor", most ever "plan" is to cause all people to to increase their reportable income which in turn puts them in a higher tax bracket and pay more taxes.Henry K.

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.
