your first sale, who pays fees?

[sonobby1]

hi noobish question but not been there yet, but if i did sell a domain, whats the protocol. there must be fees when dealing with escrow, or paypal, who pays, the buyer or the seller, or half each.
also if you dont know the person, is it better to stick with escrow rather than paypal as ive heard about people claiming there money back from paypal once the goods have arrived at there end. thanks for any advice

Unless the seller say ahead of time, the seller will pay all the fees. Unless the buyer ask for escrow, or to use a service other then stated by seller. Then the buyer would pay them, and if it a fairly high priced deal then escrow would be the way to go.

to avoid paypal chargebacks, you need to ask that payments are done by PayPal funded balance (the buyer put some money in his PayPal account and then AFTER that, the buyer pays you with that money).
