Relevant: http://www.rolbe.com/paypal.htm A handy calculator to help you work the fees into your prices.
EDIT: ...and by "work the fees into your prices," it basically means:
1. Decide what you want to get paid and use the calculator above to determine what the price of your item needs to be for you to receive that amount. List that amount as the actual price right from the start. Don't tack it on at the end as "PayPal fees" or anything of the sort.
2. Do these calculations for everything you sell, even if your customer isn't paying via PayPal. PayPal specifically forbids "charging customers a surcharge for using PayPal" - which basically means, you can't charge more for using PayPal as opposed to other payment methods. Charge the same amount for all payment methods you accept, and you're pretty much golden.
