Probably not. More people use Paypal, their fees are simple, and it's easy to spend or withdraw the money.

which site were russians using? is skrill free for europeans? better than paypal?

russians are with qiwi maybe, no idea; skrill is the old moneybookers, available everywhere

Fees are simply expensive. But people don’t see it as the games traded is relative low price anyway so what does 5-8% more in fee matters.

Between europeans the fees are 0 if you send as Family/Friends. If the receiver has its currency set in something else than Euros, then Paypal will take a fee, so it's best everyone goes to their settings and sets that default to Euro, I had to tell that to a seller yesterday so we could avoid the fee. As for US, they probably can't set the currency to anything else than the dollar so you can't avoid the fee.
I'm just curious what fees do Skrill and Qiwi practice, I'm open to trying any of them if they offer better services and lower fees than Paypal

My point is that, as a seller, I know how much it will cost me to accept Paypal payments. I can't clearly tell how much it would cost me to take and actually spend Skrill payments, but no matter what listed fee(s) I apply, it's more expensive than Paypal for small payments.
