30-60cent charge per transaction, plus a variable percentage, depending on exactly how the payment is made, how much, where you live, etc.

In other words for charges under a few dollars PayPal is far too expensive to use. Plus, their terms and conditions specifically ban you from charging extra to cover these costs, so you can't pass it on to the customer.
