I have been a dealer on eBay for over 8 years now and have over 1500 transactions(2 other ids)and have done rather nicely without Paypal.Tried them once and was a victim of fraud and red tape due to it.Hey...if you want to accpt Paypal as payment that is fine....I HAVE NO PROBLEMS WITH THAT.All I wonder is why people will not accept other forms of payment as well.Since when is cash useless? I have had sellers tell me that they will not accept cash(how absurd!) even though I told them that I would accept full responsibility if it did not get there.
