hi, had a quick search but not enough time.

just wondering whats the best way and safest way to send money via Paypal, as i am just about to buy something from 106owners, thanks

I've heard " gift payment is safest"

Gift payment is the least safest. If you send via gift then you have no protection.

People complain about fees but its only ever been a few pence for me, barely worth worrying about.

Neve pay by gift unless it is a gift...

Pay normally and you are able to claim back if goes wropng
peopel wanting gift payments on 106oc are often scammer in my experience.
Lemme guess, newish member, cheap item /win?

If buyer is requesting payment via gift, tell them you will cover fees and send normal payment.

Just add 3.6% to the total. Then you have some comeback if it goes wrong
