you are right, not that i doubted you. it's a middle man scam. $13.75 on $150 transfer. you can "normally" do paypal for almost free, or even for free.

ok, maybe i'm slow. if you already have the money in your account why bother with paypal? why not just use an ATM in the first place. i know i'm missing the point here. HELP!

Paypal gives a better rate than Chase Bank.
Paypal charges $1 and Chase charges $3.

but assuming that you are using chase either eay how do you save? is there an option for paypal as the account, like chequing, savings, visa, paypal?
