[Roadsters] ebay/paypal my 2 c

[ljordan704 at netscape.net]

Though the idea of Paypal is that you don't get stuck with a bounced 
check, or worse, a fake money order, cashier's check. Problem with 
Pypal is the recipient of thgoods can complain to Paypal about this or 
that and get the charges reversed and you will not always see your item 
ever again either.

As an old-hand ebayer, I would just say that if you sell high priced 
items
on ebay advice your seller to pay in some way other than PayPal.  They 
get
paid on a percentage of the payment and it is WHOPPING!  When I sell 
cars.
etc up there I have the buyer pay by cash, cashier's check, direct wire 
or
account transfer -- saves $$$$$!

My $0.02.
