New trope: Fee2Pay

I saw that there wasn't an existing page for this, so I made one. I need examples.

You need more than that. You need to recreate the page properly -- it has been deleted for the following reasons:

  1. It was created in the main namespace and not in the Trope Workshop. (You need more than the page template, you need to put it in the right place.)
  2. One sentence is not a trope description.
  3. Trope candidates require a minimum of three examples to demonstrate that they are likely to be a genuine trope. Candidates offered without examples are subject to immediate deletion.
  4. It lacked categories beyond the default ones automatically added by the page template. Usually this isn't something we ping a new page for, but since you skimped so dramatically on everything else a trope candidate ought to have, we're flagging this as additional evidence of no intent to actually put in the work to create a proper trope page.

Please review All The Tropes:Trope Workshop Guidelines, particularly the New Trope Checklist, before resubmitting this candidate. One sentence with no other content basically looks like you're throwing the barest shred of an idea out in the hope that everyone else will do all the hard work and thinking for you. No, you don't get to do that.

As an example, please see the trope candidate that I put into the Trope Workshop earlier today, Planet Killer. It has what we consider to be the bare minimum description for a trope candidate.
