Doug, this is my opinion...

This issue has been posed to me by several ccgtcc Members (privately) as a function of asking me questions in regard to my running for Club Secretary.

In general, my responses were inline with your statement and I support the fact that you have made this post! I believe that I can state that I have never responded to a for sale post where a PayPal "gift" option was solicited.

And to elaborate on this issue, since you have brought it up, I find it particularly irksome when after the fact, a seller will say, BTW, make that PayPal payment a "gift". And for the record, in those cases, I have added the fee amount to my payment and told the seller that in the future, I will expect a 50/50 split of the fee or just a regular "goods" transaction.

Anyway, I applaud your comment here! Perhaps we could get a ccgtcc Board endorsement of this opinion posted on the Club's Message Board. I would hope that you are not the only ccgtcc Board member that feels this way.

Respectfully,

Jim Follis
ccgtcc LM 3872-53
