Got the latest currency exchange rates, confirmed seller agrees to the exchange rate, and wired the funds plus enough to cover my wire transfer fees. You'd think I'm done.
Nope.
Seller says HIS bank then deducted a wire transfer fee equal to $8.40, which he says I still owe him, which he recommends I pay by Paypal to avoid my wire fees, and his wire fees, both of which each exceed the amount I'm to wire. Ok. So I Paypal him $8.40. You'd think I'm done.
Nope.
Now he says Paypal deducted $0.56 from the amount I sent, so I still owe him that spare change.
Are you shitting me? You won't even eat that to make this deal done.
Fuuuuu
But with each jab I'll get better at this, right? So the next transaction will be like, "Ok, so I owe you x, but what are the wire fees on your end, so I can be sure to cover that up front as well... and by your accepting this amount means you agree it means I've paid in full, regardless of any unanticipated fluctuations in currency or fees on your end." Boom.
Plus this...
