Email sent. I guess I'll play along. 
And payment sent in full. The wait begins!
Do we send with purchase protection or without?
It’s a one man operation Owen, give him some time
I’m sorry, my post sounded worse in print than it did in my head. I was worried I had screwed up, not the other way around.

I figured so.Depends if you trust me
beautiful pipe
Down payment made for stem color #7.
Down payment is made. Now, to put it out of my mind for a few months. Like that is possible. I'll probably only think about this pipe on the occasions I smoke a pipe. In other words. Every. Day. Usually more than once each day. Maybe I'll just print out a picture of the pipe and tape it to my computer screen....
God didn’t teach me patience. But you pipe smokers sure are!

I must take blame for this as I forgot about this aspect of the PayPal payments system. Chris is already extending us quite a generous discount. A 3% surcharge is taken from the seller for the goods and payments guarantee. That cost should have been baked into this year’s pipe price, alas a short sighted mistake on my part.
I did not understand what it was. Once a fellow member explained it, I sent it without it charging him anything. This was my first PayPal experience. Haha
Down payment sent!
I'm actually charging Chris for the pleasure of doing business with me. In the end he will owe me.
H'mmm, I guess I will pay that 3% on the other end.
Is this something new with PayPal? I don’t remember seeing it before. I answered no, as I didn’t want Chris charged any more. While the protection could be a good thing (not in this case, as Chris is an established entity), but you would think PP would offer the sender the choice to pay for it.
If you selected "pay for goods and services" the seller pays the fee and you are protected.
If you select "send to a friend" then you pay the fee and get no protection.
IDK if it's new or not. But seems like it's been this way for years. Maybe they changed their fees? Who knows.
If you are pay the fee it's 5 bucks if taken out of your bank. and 12 bucks if you use a credit card (for the whole $220)
I'm sure it's not any different if the seller pays the fee. but IDK.
We are getting a killer pipe at a deep discount. Hand made for B&B members exclusively. Pay the fee.

No, I understand the fee we pay, I am talking about the protection. They want to then charge a fee to the seller. You would think that if the customer wanted to get the extra protection, then the customer, not the seller, should pay it.
I recommend you ask PayPal. I doubt anyone here would know more than them.
The security of paying by Paypal is a comfort to the buyer and, therefore, a marketing expense for the seller. (Just like accepting Amex . . . these jackwagons think they provide some sort of service charging quite a bit more for credit card processing than any other card provider.)
In this case we are dealing with a well known and respected pipe maker who depends on his reputation to make a living. I'm sure most of us would agree that we don't need to burden Chris with any extra expense.
