WTF?
So, in your opinion, equal treatment means that you have to sell broadly similar products from different manufacturers at the same price? So, Porsche could require that you sell their cars at the same price as a Fiat, even though you have to buy it from them at a much higher price than what you pay for the Fiat?
How the fuck is it not obvious that paypal gets treated differently because it is fucking different? Do you seriously think that merchants make up such rules arbitrarily? That it's not maybe that paypal is expensive, so they do the only thing that's fair: They charge the person responsible for the increased costs those increased costs? That it's not maybe that paypal lets itself be used for fraud much more easily than other payment methods in some scenarios, so merchants aren't willing to take that additional risk?
