O/T ebay Paypal question
Does anyone know if I am allowed to say that I take only Paypal E-checks for an item I sell on ebay, in my listing? This would be in the vintage card category...I looked on payment options and it didn't say yea or nay.....

I don't normally take e-checks so I am not for sure, but would eBay care if you do? As long as you take paypal, would they really care.
Unless there is no fee for e-checks... |

No, you are required to accept card funded payments.

That's not quite what I meant. Honestly I might want to sell a few things before our next auction to raise money but don't care for the high Paypal rates. Taking a Paypal e-check is only $5....though I know I have to wait for the money, which is fine. I wonder if I could put "Paypal E-check preferred"?

I don't think that there is any policy that prohibits making such a statement in the listing, however, by policy the buyer must still have the option to pay via a credit card.
There is a limit, I think $10K, at which point PayPal may require that a buyer pay via echeck rather than credit card. Particularly with higher priced items the credit card does provide the buyer an additonal layer of protection/recourse, and therefor comfort in use. In contrast it does provide the seller with higher fees and angst. |

There used to be a filter in the Paypal profile section to exclude payments made by credit card but now in the overly friendly buyer environment, that ebay is fostering, that is not a possibility.

e checks are great cause there is no paypal fee except $5 1 time charge no matter how large the item! I say go for it, great idea Leon, Dan.

I think there is an option to only accept e-checks. Maybe not...
