    I want to buy some server hosting of somone, but he asks + $7 if i pay with paypal. So wouldn't it be better if I used a Virtual CC to pay him? Or will these costs be so high that it will be almost the same. It's about sums of $30 - $50 .

    So, should I pay him with PP and pay +$7, or use a Virtual CC?

    i think cause paypal always takes a small fee from your payments. So he asks extra $7, to cover that.

    How much are you going to pay him in total except the 7$ he is asking additionally to cover fees?

    It's about sums of $25 to $40, right now its $30.
    So i'd have to pay him $37, that's pretty much more.

    Well 7$ additional on a payment of 25-40$ seems totally unreasonable. Maximum fee with that much amount would be like 3$.

    Who knows if the guy he is dealing with is honest or not but this is not a way to do some service. Asking for that much high fees suggest that person do not have a business mind :p

    Thanks, really usefull ;)

    And I'm not gonna do business with him, already found someone else. He offers cheaper prices, even without the $7, so I'm lucky I found him. Still thanks tough ;)
