The thing that has always been bothering me is that why would people buy mtgo tickets here when it's usually more expense after the payppal fees. For example, if people here sell them at $.95 and wants the buyer to pay the fees, which is 4% (i think, correct me if I'm wrong)then it's $.988 per ticket.

You can pay with PayPal gift to avoid fees.

No, that means there are no fees.

Also, frankly, who would you rather buy from, some random on Ebay who might rip you off, or someone on MOTL who you can trust?

Paypal gift does not have any fees associated with either end.
EDIT: Slinga beat me to it.

Paypal gift means 1% fees for us non-americans though

Still beats paying taxes over tix though.
