I got this notice from Paypal. IF your sales exceed $2K a month they CAN HOLD your money for up to 21 DAYS (3 weeks) for the amount OVER $2K. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) I applied to up my amount to $5K. Said they would get back to me. IS this the IRS going after you and me? Back to checks and money orders

I like Zelle for many reasons. It’s not the right platform if you are not sure about the person you are sending money to but if you are confident on that, it’s the way to go. Concur. It does not offer the seller protections that PayPal does. However, it's also not subjected to the 1099K requirement (which will eventually happen, as required by law; VITA tax prep guy here, not looking forward to that). The IRS can get access to your bank records records whenever it wants to... Paypal = Great to send (apart from the outrageous exchange rates they use), shyte to receive As a consumer, I tend to disagree. PayPal is very much supportive of the sellers when there's a dispute; I've been shafted by a few scam sellers (not here) that used that to their advantage. For that reason I generally will not use PayPal for purchase transactions unless I know the individual/company; I get a lot more seller protection using credit cards directly. And the PayPal/eBay connection has destroyed eBay's attraction as an individual non-commerical seller (of anything, not just car parts). Given the fees between the two, plus increasing shipping costs, I'm at the point where I'm just throwing away/scrapping things instead of trying to sell them, the juice and worth the squeeze. |
