    @aksie @timanrebel Indeed, for finance and procurement this is really about predictability in their budgets. More certainty upfront and less surprises down the road. Depending on the amount though, I’ve seen corporate teams dodge procurement by using PayPal for expensing 6-7k monthly invoices.

    @OcksLogic It is gonna get better, its already not worth scalping the series x on ebay you will most likely break even or make at max $50, the ps5 market price is slowly going down and if it reaches the $750 mark it is no longer worth scalping on ebay due to ebay fee,shipping,paypal fee.

    @irish_jezebel QuickBooks has always had problems with PayPal periodically, try disconnecting PayPal from your account and link again seems to have solved a few peoples problems

  • X__Anderson Anders L (@X__Anderson) reported

    A few thoughts: Wouldn't PayPal know about the Tether issue before going into Bitcoin buying/selling? Wouldn't Mastercard realize the potential disaster as well? How about Tesla? Did they realize it wouldn't be a disaster but foresaw a settlement coming?

  • crepusculecat solby (@crepusculecat) reported

    supplies/taxes/etc. I spend about 15k a year in fur and supplies and PayPal fees, I would imagine that's near average. we are down to 55k, still firmly middle class though. self employed people are taxed at a higher rate then hourly jobs, to the tune of almost 20% in the end

    @MellesBellesM It’s right, eBay US moved off PayPal a while ago. Some benefits (quicker payment to sellers and less fees) but some down sides too (can’t remember).
