    It's best to offer as many payment options as you are comfortable with. I don't particularly like Paypal myself, but I offer it for my buyers that do like it. I also offer Google checkout which is used about 25% of all my transactions.

    Forgot to ask. Do you have any major problems with google check out? For example are they as "pro" buyers as paypal is?? The reason I ask is
    I just lost $$$ to a buyer who lied, ;lied, lied.

    Google checkout is not pro or anti anything as it is under the watchful eye of governmental bodies and they can't dip into your funds (any funds) for any reason whatsoever. Ebay owns Paypal, so they can do what the heck they like, including withholding your monies and dipping into your funds (wherever they can) and are not governed by anyone.

    Look at Moneybookers.com - accepted worldwide and cheaper than Paypal.

    Paypal just announced their membership number, it was huge.
    So yes offer Google Check out (I can't as they are not world-wide)
    And Money Bookers.
    But most buyers will pay by Paypal.

    I would go for Moneybookers everytime. People who pay me seem to prefer Pay Pal, but in my humble opinion,
    Moneybookers is miles better.I use Moneybookers all the time on another site begining with "D".

    Gazza and Mark said they would be intergrating Skrill (Moneybookers) with eBid some months ago ... but that seems to be on eBid elastic time ! Hope they do it soon.

    Yes, they integrated Amazon Payments and then Amazon un-integrated themselves !
