[The use > is just to sell tshirts on a site I run for a friend, no big > ecommerce stuff.} I've used paypal, both directions, for some time. Earlier this year I was forced to upgrade to a paypal commercial account for one very small business I'm running, which was annoying. I've found them to be very good. Nothing has ever gone wrong (gone wrong, gone wrong, ...). I think what gets people so annoyed is that they do sometimes seem to pretend that you can pay *anybody* that way, and then send the anybody email saying "there's money here waiting if you open an account". That seems to annoy people for some reason :-). -- David Dyer-Bennet, <dd-b at dd-b.net>, <www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <noguns-nomoney.com> <www.dd-b.net/carry/> Photos: <dd-b.lighthunters.net> Snapshots: <www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <dragaera.info/> _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
