There are FAR too many scams, etc. associated with PayPal
for me to have anything to do with it. Even during the sign-up
process up came a page that was (if one thought about it...)
a scam (it must have been from a PayPal insider or a hacker,
neither reassuring about dealing through PayPal). So, I simply
refuse to deal with anything but postal MOs sent by mail. If
any fraud is involved on either side (in the US...), the PO does
eventually get "even" (they collected $850 once for me from
a scammer years ago). If someone says "PayPal only", I don't
bid. Easy...
