    What would the Paypal fees be if I was to be receiving a $5,000 Payment from a buyer?

    Just wondering, because I really really don't want to use Paypal, but thats my buyer's only option for payment. Its for a site sale on SitePoint. Escrow is another option as well, however it takes a long time, and a lot of stress.

    Any ideas what the fee's would be?

    I think about $170 would get lost in fees.

    You can request a bank wire transfer... it's much cheaper..

    Buyer needs to pay with VISA, so that is not a possibility. Thanks though :)
