I've turned in TONS of people for selling fansubs 
on auction and most of them have been removed 
immediately. Unfortunately, it's like a full time 
job and I can't do it every week like I used to.

The thing about the extra fees is this: If you're 
a business, (and you can be classifed as such if 
you are gaining over $100/month in credit card 
transactions through PayPal) then it's simply the 
cost of doing business per month. With cels it 
kind of sucks, because they are expensive, but 
whenever there is an increase in the cost to do 
business, it is passed onto the consumer. 'Brick 
and Mortar' businesses just don't necessarily 
disclose that to you! So go ahead and add the 
handling fee. Add it to shipping, or add it to 
your opening bid price to recoup your costs. 

On a personal note, I don't think it's fair to 
necessarily pass those extra charges onto 
customers, especially if the extra charges aren't 
generated by the consumers themselves. Paypal is 
a service that people CHOOSE to use. You can 
always restrict people from sending payments 
through PayPal, or use another service to meet 
your business needs. Also, not _everything_ 
should be free or cheap. If demand is high, and 
supply low, prices must increase. I understand 
that you just can't go into business for free 
(without any associated costs), but lots of 
people who run businesses on the web expect that 
you should be able to do whatever you want, with 
no rules, regulations, or cuts into profit.

On the other hand, the consumer is benefitting 
from the sellers' use of PayPal. (Or they should 
be, or what's the point?) So split the costs in 
half per transaction..by adding half to shipping 
totals and half to opening bid price.
