Just reading the Newsletter from PayPal and they're saying you can now pay your recurring fees (not sure if this is different to one off listings) with PayPal.
This is good, I think.
Just means that if you make a sale, and get paid with PayPal, you can just use your balance to make payment of your fees. Not bad, about time too, but.
Considering Paypal is an ebay company, there wouldn't be any cost. I think its more the benefit to eBay by not having to charge bank accounts for the fees, just take them directly from a Paypal balance.
eBay is always looking for ways to get more money....the fact that you incure a listing fee, final valuation fee & a PayPal fee for accepting payment is proof !
