I only found out about the gift payment from someone who was selling a game to my son. I have never asked for someone to gift or fees, just felt too....but I didn't know you weren't
allowed to ask. On another forum I belong to they all ask to add a paypal fee with the purchase.
Thanks for the advice. I will definitely look more closely into the paypal TOS.

It's also against PayPals TOS to ask the customer to pay the fees. You can charge a 'handling' fee, but honestly most people rather pay the .30+ more for the item & pay actual shipping.
