Random Thought Of The Day

Did PayPal raise the fee for Goods & Services payments?

On a recent transaction the buyer sent me funds G&S and PayPal took a 9.3% fee.

The transaction was of low value so I am not bickering, I am merely wondering if anyone else noticed a G&S fee this high!

I think they take a flat $0.30 in addition to the percentage, so it could be a lot if you were only sent a few dollars.

Yes, it was a couple bucks.
Thank You for the info!

Just had a minor earthquake!
Hopefully just aftershocks from the 5-something Richter quake that shook yesterday thankfully with an epicenter far away from my location.
Even though it was a small quake the house moaned, things clattered - oddly enough I did not feel the ground move.

The quake occurred today at 12:20 local time, it had a magnitude of 6.2 on the Richter scale at its epicenter.
It is reported that the quake could be felt in all regions of Croatia and neighboring countries.

Pictures of caved in houses are starting to emerge on the internet, no reports of casualties as far as I looked it up.

Pretty hair raising. Just before the 4 minute mark the blast happens.
They may never know what made that guy wig-out. It is scary though.

Correction, 6.4 on the Richter scale at the epicenter of the quake - that's what they said in the evening TV news.

It sure keeps shaking this year, there were quakes earlier this year that dragged out for days.

In other news, I went to my local Stihl dealer today in hopes to score a calendar featuring girls.
They gave me a "Timbersports" calendar and said there are no 2021 girl calendars.

I hope they gave me wrong info and someone can confirm that there are girl calendars after all.

I heard they are no longer making the girly calenders.

Well it was shaking quite a bit overhere in Požega, my grandma (who never experienced an earthquake before) thought that her cellphone is causing her to shake lol.

Stihl has always suck unflinchingly to its mission:

Create wonderful things that people like, then discontinue them.
