If you use the gift option and either have $$ in your paypal account or are linked to a bank account and backed by a credit card, there are NEVER any fees to use this service (gift). But you have to set it up correctly to avoid the fees.

So yes, there IS a free ride. You just have to know how to hitch-hike ha ha!


I have used this once or twice.

Business 101 tells us that if a few gun guys have figured out a loop hole so that PayPal makes no money for providing a service that costs them money to provide, that PayPal will not allow this loop hole to last for very long.

Just saying.
