I’m relatively new to BPL, so forgive me if this is a stupid question. I see PPFF or pay 3 or 4% on items listed on the gear swap page. I’ve figured out that PP means PayPal, but what does FF mean? And I assume 3 or 4% means the PayPal fee.

PayPal friends and family.

Conventional wisdom says pay the fee. Though many f&f transactions take place without issue. Know your seller.

Actually, I’m about to post an item for sale, but didn’t know if I should put PPFF. So what does friends and family mean? Is this a PayPal feature of some kind? I use PayPal to accept payments from my clients that I do work for, but I’ve never heard of FF.
