Hi lizziemacmac28,
Welcome to the community forum and thanks for posting.
There is a fee for receiving money on PayPal when you are selling an item. The seller involved should be aware of this fee and we advise against passing this on to the buyer. You will find a full list of fees here https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/paypal-fees .
I hope this helps.
Rachael
