I have great experience with paypal! They are really good!

First to sign up put all your info. normal stuff. It takes 3 days to go though. When I got mine, I put my bank card on it and then my main credit cards. When you sell you get the money and it says to transfer in your bank account. REALLY easy to do!

I've never had a "bad" experience with paypal. I know they are VERY good...

Thats all I can really say about them. I mainly use it for ebay stuff

You can also get a debit card for your paypal account. You can use it in stores just like a normal debit card, or you can make withdrawls from ATM machines with it as well. I love Paypal!

One thing you might want to consider is the % for processing the PayPal...cant remember if it is 3%...something like that. I've seen ads that say if purchased with PayPal...buyer pays the 3% processing fee. Just a thought when pricing.

The seller is charged a fee (a few %) for each transation. The buyer has to be set up for paypal to accept their credit card ---- or -- if the seller wants to pay MORE money they can open a special kind of account with Paypal where they can accept any credit card -- different from the buyer having the paypal acct.

It is quite convenient -- and buyers/sellers have some sort of recourse if there are problems --- you need to check with Paypal as to what that specifically means for what you are selling.

have used paypal since 1998. by the time you do all the other stuff with the other companies, paypal is the way to go. I have used virtual terminal, I use the paypal buttons too for my items and my individual horses on the website. if you have questions, email me, it is really easy. sign up for the business premier acct. and get the debit card.

I have had a Paypal account for YEARS! As a seller and buyer on eBay, I *love* it. It's easy to pay for items because you just click a button or two and you are done. I've never had an issue with it (knock on wood) and love websites that allow you to pay for your items using it. The only down side to it is the fees. I recently upgraded my account to a "premier account" so I could accept credit card payments and now *every* transaction (incoming) is charged a fee, even if the buyer pays with their account and not a credit card. The fees are low, but it is still crappy that you are charged a fee for a paypal account to paypal account transfer. It's a small bummer, but not big enough to make me switch back to a "regular account" because my eBay buyers can pay via credit card now. As I mentioned, I love websites that allow you to pay for items with your paypal account. KayJay Farms has wonderful halter/lead combos that fit my geldings wonky head and you can pay them using paypal. So, I need a new halter, and in about 4 clicks, I have ordered and paid for one! (I'm lazy, what can I say!)

I think it's great.
