Just wondering........... For those of you who have web sites and take payment electronically (on line), may I ask which system you have opted for? ie. PayPal, etc. Any pros and cons you can mention would be appreciated. Many thanks, Regards, Ian

I'm a big fan of Paypal, personally. It's safe, secure and you can heave the money over to your bankaccount (or vice versa) at a low (or no) cost. There are a few minuses though. A client could withdraw the payment (don't know how easy this is though) and I have seen some complaints here and there. But, all in all, I think it's better than E-gold or any of the others.

I like Paypal. I understand if you have reservations about them, because they had a reputation for problems a few years ago. (I even had a problem related to them, but not necessarily their fault, a few years ago.) But I'm pretty certain they've worked them out. I was leery of them at first, but I'm happy now. I needed to refund money to someone recently (my choice), and it was a simple, streamlined process. I've also had good dealings with their customer service people, on the phone, when something on their website confused me. Nevada
