Advice: Should I report this?

[totschrei.livejournal.com]

Recently I was bidding and won a part in a YCH auction.
I had every intent to pay until the artist requested I send the money as a Gift because of the fees. Even after I explained to them that it is against the TOS of paypal to send as gift as well ask the customer to cover the fees they still request users to cover the fees.

Conversation in Notes (I have blocked out their paypal as well their username for now):

I am just curious if I should report this to Paypal that they continue to ask people to send as gift/cover the fees or report it to admins of FA or even submit an Artist_beware about them? But since the transaction never went through I wouldn't think a post would be able to be posted.

What advice can I get? :\

Personally, I wouldn't report it. But I would decline to continue with the transaction, and explain to them why I was.

I've never understood why some have an issue with Paypal fees. Paypal is a service, and it's one that makes conducting your business much smoother and easier. Why would it be free?

I have tried explaining it and I have declined.
As well I was more concerned for those who don't know better about using PayPal.
