PayPal is by far the best option.. For us people the are outside the
USA (yes peoples, the world does not revolve around the USA!!!) some of
us (like me) only have four choices.....:
(a) PayPal - Reliable, cheap and efficient!
(b) Escrow - Pain in the arse to use and has huge fees!
(c) BidPay - For auctions only, slow, expensive, unreliable!
(d) IMOs - Hugely expensive... fees quite often are as much as or more
than the product itself and extremely slow.
Most other e-services don't allow international users to open accounts.
So frankly I am sick of hearing all the winging.
As for people like David that run a business, and use PayPal! Excellent
I say, there should be more online businesses that accept PayPal for
credit card payments. I too run a small computer business, and I can't
afford the costs of being able to accept credit cards, so PayPal offers
a great way to do that!
To answer your question David... e-money is the way to go as GPL is a
bit hard to come by! ;0) Do you take Monopoly money instead? =0)
My 5c!
