On the subject of paypal, has anyone discovered why paypal insists on bank details to verify you when it aleardy has your credit card details. I believe they limit you to £500 total spend with them and then kick you out if you refuse?
paypal was a total nightmare when i re-set it up in november. you have to confirm via bank account and then via a credit card.

Ime getting myself in allsorts of problems....i got the quantity wrong
Ive got toooo many bids for not enough bits ,woops!
For the postage problem, if you can't change it then the reson is probably because he has already sent you an invoice (or this has happened automatically) so you will not be able to change it.. you can only email the seller for this.
About adding to your item's description... clicked revise?? You can revise your listing but only if it has no bids... If you need to edit your listing, then bids have to be cancelled first.
Also, you cannot edit or add to your lisiting if it has less then 12 hours remaining..

just paypal him the ammount you want to send...there's no need to use the ebay side of it.
I've done that - made slightly more difficult by the fact that paypal won't accept you are paying for more than item, but should be ok with cover note.
Now to see if it turns up (bloke has been rather incommunicative thus far...)
I've had this in the past - if the total postage is locked and you can't edit it there is another box in the charges column for special charges/fees or somesuch - simply add the figure you want removed as a negative and re-calculate. Sorry for being a bit vague but I don't currently have anything to pay for so can't give you the exact terms used by PayPal.

I have a verified account with Paypal and was surprised to find that the money henceforth comes out of your BANK ACCOUNT with the credit card as a back-up source of funds. Seems they don't like you loading up your credit card. Another thing I found with Paypal is that having paid for items by Paypal, a part I ordered wasn't in stock, so I asked for a refund. Now money coming INTO the account gets charged a fee so I was $10 down.
MY final gripe with Paypal is that it's pretty useless as most US traders won't supply the UK. When you use an agent in the US, there is no provision on the UK site to specify a US address as a delivery address. I e-mailed Paypal and got this response:
Sweet FA

They can refund fee-free... next time get 'em to go into the transaction details of the payment you sent to them... and they can just click 'refund'.
Unless they have changed this, which I seriously doubt, it'll save you a bit of cash next time!!
Edit:
And about the Bank account/Credit Card thing..
I added my bank account for verification, and that is fine, but when I pay for things I never use my bank account.. You can select your credit cards each time you pay for something just by selecting 'Payment Source..' or similar (The link is under the amount that will be charged). On this page you can change primary source to your credit/debit card.. and then the Backup source to either the same card, or another one
I always do that as my Debit card cannot go overdrawn
