I have used paypal for years. Some people don't like the fee they charge but I like the security. I think the fee is around 4% so if it bothers you, add that back in to the price. As long as they have the money in their account the transfer is instant.

you can get them to do a bank transfer, and all the costs will be theirs.  Or they can paypal you the money as a gift, they then have to pay the fee, but they have no protection against fraud.  Lastly you can work out what they should pay if you want £200 after all fees deducted.

Depending on who I'm dealing with, I use paypal or go into my bank and transfer money directly into their account. I use the second method if I'm dealing with someone I know - I wouldn't ask a complete stranger to give me their account number and sort code! ;)

Do you wish to pay tax?

Do you wish to pay full tax?

Two things worth considering when choosing how to pay for your stash.
