    they have a monopoly IMO on online pay service.

    90% of MY CUSTOMERS will not buy from me unless they can use paypal. They know that paypal sides almost always with the buyer so they are protected, and a great deal of them know how to scam paypal and the seller into getting money.

    Paypal DOES NOT PROTECT THE SELLER nearly as much as the buyer.

    So when 90% of your customer base wants to use that service, you cant simply say "no".

    Paypal has businesses by the balls because you either use them and accept the fact that every 6 months youll lose 1-2 transactions and deal with it, or dont use them and pretty much go out of business.

    Thats the simple truth.

    Do you take credit cards? Or is that not an option? Just wondering.

    That was over a 2-3 year period. The amount of money I made doesnt compare to what I lost.
