So many times I see someone selling something and saying that they will cover the Paypal fees. Well you SHOULD cover those fees because they are YOURS to begin with. It's sellers fees...Not Buyers fees.
It is also against Paypals Terms of Service to pass those fees along to the buyer.
Paypal TOS:
3. Eligibility for Use.
3.4 No Surcharges. You agree that you will not impose a surcharge or any other fee for accepting PayPal as a payment method.

Good information, I didn't know this practice was against PayPal's T&Cs and to this day simply accept the additional 3% plus suppliers bang on to cover fees ... not anymore!!
Thanks.
