Sold an item for $50 and received exactly $50 from paypal.
There were no fees taken out -- did he send it as a gift?
If not, would paypal have taken fees out?
The screen says "payment from" and not "gift from"

<< <i>May have sent as "Money Owed" >>
Well, the main reason I ask is that this is an item going to Canada to someone I do not know. In the case that it gets lost by the post office, I would like to know if money owed or gift will qualify for a claim on his end.
<< <i>Well it sounds like he didn't pay you via Paypal in a way that directly links it to the eBay auction. This raises a lot of questions. Is the buyer an established eBayer? What does his feedback left and received look like? >>
Not an eBay transaction.
As of November 1, 2010, ALL PayPal payments for merchandise - made
on ANY venue - are subject to PP "Purchase Protection."
SNAD and INR claims are BOTH covered under the plan.
BST and other off-EBAY websites are included in the scheme.
Sending a "request for money" avoids the scheme. "Personal Payments"
are NOT covered; neither are "gifts."

13.2 Eligibility Requirements.
To be eligible for PayPal Purchase Protection you must meet all of the following requirements:
Pay for the eligible item from your PayPal Account.
Pay for the full amount of the item with one payment. Items purchased with multiple payments – like a deposit followed by a final payment – are not eligible.
Send the payment to the Seller through:
the eBay “Pay Now” button or the eBay invoice; or
the “Send Money” button of your PayPal account by selecting “eBay Item” and entering your eBay User ID and the eBay item number for purchases on eBay website; or
the Send Money tab on the PayPal website, by clicking the “Purchase” tab, or by selecting the “Checkout with PayPal” button or otherwise selecting PayPal as part of a Seller’s checkout flow.
Open a Dispute within 45 days of the date you sent the payment – then follow the online dispute resolution process described below under Dispute Resolution.
Have an Account in good standing.
