Buying Online with Pay Pal... good or bad?

Thats exactly my point, same risk involved no matter what your payment method.

I still will not send money though them. They take what 3% of the money i send to you to right? I will not give money to a company with such poor customer service.

You can use your credit card through paypal and still do a chargeback through your credit card company. Just because paypal says you can't doesn't mean your card company agreed to their TOS. I have heard about people succesfully getting money back from paypal through their CC company. ;)

They dont take 3% from you, they take it from the seller. There is no charge to send money in paypal, just to accept it.

Is that not what I said?

Comes out of the seller's pocket why would that bother you? :confuzd:

I guess we can agree to disagree. I have used paypal without incident for years now. :) So I can only speak from experience.

As I mentioned earlier, Paypal does have its faults, but its the fastest and easiest game in town for accepting or paying by credit card. Take precautions and as always, having confidence is who you are buying from is key. A scumbag out to steal your money will do it regardless of how you pay. Paypal offers some recourse for buyers and your CC company as Bill said should offer it as well.

I have not had a problem with paypal, and DID get my money back from a scammer on a certain reptile auction site .... I did use the buyer credit so it was backed by Chase, and that could be the reason I got my money back. If fact it took one phone call and was resolved ........
