Partner fees Discogs

Hallo and good day to you. 

I made a sale on discogs and noticed a difference in partner fees between discogs and paypal. Why there is this big difference. It seems that Discogs calculates the partner fees differently from PayPal. I know that for Greece the PayPal fee is 4.4% + 0.35€ according the PayPal site but in my case the partner fees are much more. I would like to know, how the partner fees have been calculated.

I have send you tow fotos one from discogs and the other is from PayPal fees explain. 

Thank you in advance.

Hello and thank you for the quick response. 

The discogs fees are clear to me contrary to PayPal fees that aren't.  And I explain,  discogs charges me 9% fee( 35,7 × 9% = 3,21€) this is clear to me.  PayPal charges m[Removed. Phone #s not permitted] + 0,35€ = 1,56) this is also clear to me .

What I don't understand is the partner fees and why the amount is different.  Discogs charges me 3,21€ and PayPal charges me partner fee[Removed. Phone #s not permitted]77€) there is 0,77€ difference and I would like to know why I have been charged this (0,77€) extra amount. 

Thank you in advance.

Sorry but PayPal remove my calculations as a phone number (crazy) so I post the last paragraph again. 

What I don't understand is the partner fees and why the amount is different.  Discogs charges me 3,21€ and PayPal charges me partner fee 3,98€ there is 0,77€ difference and I would like to know why I have been charged this (0,77€) extra amount. 

3,98€ - 3,21€ = 0,77€

Thank you in advance.
