Nope, it doesn't cost too much. I sent 200$ USD 3 days back through PP and the receiver received 193$ USD.
That is for 200$ Yaldaram, taxes does go high as amount goes high. Its not like we calculate like for 200 bucks 7$ goes as tax, so for 1K$ 7X5 = only 35$ doesn't goes as tax, it goes quite high.

While am not sure if it'd be 700-750$ for 1K$ payment, but I believe at least around 100$ or more definitely gets subtracted as taxes.

edit: Correction, while for India, I just saw:

for 1K$ it'd be 39.30$ as tax, quite good, but for other countries, am not sure. Still a lot high than LR.
Yes, but you wrote $700-750 for 1k Toungue

I never made a 1K$ transaction also because now PayPal doesn't allow sending money facility to Indian users but I did heard such things I believe. Not sure of what are those taxes levied in other countries though.
Paypal's fees are usually 1-5% Smile never 25%
Yay paypal.

And yes, it was paypal's braindead policy that caused the destruction of an antique for absolutely no gain to anyone. "What? A piece of paper with the violin might be fake? Destroy the whole damn thing!"
That's extraordinary, nice post.
Google Checkout is amazing.
https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_...ng_us/fees That should settle some things.

@Anxiety I don't think google Checkout has an API though, so you can't do IPN. <-It might, but i haven't seen anything, though i truely haven't looked to far into it.
LR has API kinda thing, http://sci.libertyreserve.com , works flawlessly.

Google Checkout - Didn't tried it.
