That makes a lot of sense, but I did not think it was easy to transfer the money directly to someone else. When people collect with ebay they are forced to sign up for a paypal account.

This does lower the cost, but it I think it significantly raises the transaction activation energy.

Am I wrong?

Yes. Fundable forces users to sign up for a paypal account or pay by check. It does raise the transaction activation energy but i think this is the best way to circumvent the double-fees problem.
