Cant we all just get along? Here's an idea, split the fees. Both parties benefit. The Seller is more likely to sell if someone can charge the fee( we're a nation in incredible debt) plus he or she, knows they have funds immediately. As a buyer it's convenient, plus you also know the seller has recived funds in case of later problems( like no item) so you have somebody on your side.Or if your a seller ask if the buyer would be willing to absorb a portion of the cost, rather than the full fee. I agree with eldragon becuse the seller needs the money more than the item in most cases
