I also got caught out by this when i drunkenly bid on some gazelles on German ebay, i won them for 34 euro but didn't notice the seller didn't accept pay pal.
My bank wanted around £20 for a transfer and after a couple of trips there as the seller kept sending me insufficient info to perform one, I put 35 euro in an envelope and posted it off.
Luckily 10 days later the postie delivered me a nice new pair of kicks, and i even got a euro coin change in the bottom of one of them.
To save any more headaches i always check the payment methods before i bid on anything now.
