I used my credit card, bypassing everytthing with PAYPAL.  My credit card does not charge any fees and the rep from EBAY said I should only be paying the lesser amount since PAYPAL was not involved. The transaction does not even show up in my PAYPAL account. Paypal is trying to charge me $20 for nothing they were involved with. ... View more

Is anyone else finding tyhat PAYPAL is overcharging on international transactions?  I paid for something in EBAY using a credit card that does not have any transaction fees and I was charged about $20 too much by PAYPAL.  EBAY has told me I should be charged the lesser amount but PAYPAL is now trying to  charge back the seller(which is not where the problem is) for the $20 when it's PAYPAL charging the additional amount.   I am concerned that PAYPAL is doing this for anyone purchasing like I did, by bypassing PAYPAL transaction fees, by charging directly to a credit card.  ...
