To be honest it is the most disgusting thing I have seen in the marketplace. It may even be a violation of PP rules for premier members.
I just came from the PP website and you are right. I
didn't know this previously. I found the following under the PayPal User Agreement for all PayPal users, not just specific members:
4.1 Receiving Personal Payments. If you are selling goods or services, you may not ask the buyer to send you a Personal Payment for the purchase. If you do so, PayPal may remove your ability to accept Personal Payments.
4.6 No Surcharges. You agree that you will not impose a surcharge or any other fee for accepting PayPal as a payment method. You may charge a handling fee in connection with the sale of goods or services, as long as the handling fee does not operate as a surcharge and is not higher than the handling fee you charge for non-PayPal transactions.
