Hi folks. As has been discussed on other threads, PayPal changed policy so that it now keeps the 2.9%+$0.30 fee when it executes a refund on a return. One member says they heard that the PayPal change doesn't apply to eBay sales. Can anyone confirm whether they did or did not get the PayPal fees refunded?

I made a refund to a buyer on Nov. 7 and did not get a refund for the fees paid on the initial transaction.
That's what I understood it to be. There's nothing in either platforms policies that suggests otherwise, but I wanted to try and get clarification.
PayPal's User Agreement is quite clear on that.
I thought so, but it has come up twice in the last month. And we should now be able to see it in action.
October 24, PayPal fee $6.83
Buyer returned, no refund of fee as of now.
Maybe they bought a Happy Meal....

Actually, coin sales have suddenly spiked. High priced items still sluggish, but business booming in the $50 and under range.
All payment processors do it. Some even charge a second fee for the refund. It's not an overreach. People want to think of a sale and a return as being NO transaction. In fact, a sale and a return is TWO transactions.
I had a buyer purchase and pay for an item, and then ask to cancel the sale.
I cancelled the sale on ebay, and all the paypal fees were refunded also, so it was ZERO cost to me.
Yes, and having a GREAT month so far, no matter what "comments" might be made.
Maybe I will go buy another 100 reverse proofs.
Well that's good news if they are refunding the fees for a cancellation. Doesn't happen often, but spending 3% for a 5 minute impulse of someone else would kind of smart.
I think the sales tax is starting to be accepted more. I've seen a huge increase in volume in the last 2 weeks.
If I could buy 1000 more reverse proofs, I might...especially at issue price.
