| I've used paypal for about 4 yrs now, with no problems. Yes, they HAVE had some problems in the past... Yes, there are horror stories..... Yes you HEAR about the horror stories.... But overall they ARE a minute part of paypal. And since ebay aquired paypal there have been much less of the horror stories. Paypal could be, if nothing else, a short term solution until you find something else. Just transfer your balances out of your paypal account regularly & have them deposited into an account that is NOT your primary bank account. Preferably an account at another bank. Just be VERY careful if you get orders from Nigeria or Indonesia. Both of those are where alot of the fradulent CC transactions orginate. Alot of online folks I know WON'T accept CC from either place. I just had someone place an almost 200.00 order on my web site from Nigeria. After some checking, I sent them an email saying that I couldn't fill the order. THe address I was to deliver to was non existant......(I have my own merchant account, the accepting CC's from Nigeria & Indonsia was just an FYI, had nothing to do with Paypal.) Hazel |
