"On a lower value purchase I guess he is used to accomodating the Paypal fee. But it would be around £50 on a value of £1400, so can see why he would suggest a way of reducing his costs. I don't necessarily condone it, but in these difficult trading times I can understand why" That may be the case but the buyer isn't protected by a F&F transaction as you would be by paying with a card or regular PP business transaction.

For that amount of money I'd want all the protection I could get, if something goes wrong your bugg***d. It it's a business PP fees and other stuff like VAT should be taken into consideration by the seller, not much of a business if not.
