PayPal sucks, IMHO. I've had a number of hassles with them.
The Official PayPalSucks Page: [a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://paypalsucks.com/"]http://PayPalSucks.com/[/a][br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"][br style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"][a style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;" href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=paypal+sucks&btnG=Google+Search"]Yes, PayPal Sucks[/a] - 1.1 million web pages can't be wrong.
If it does, it is certainly no more than other systems. They're all looters. Important and necessary looters (as are many other parasites in our lives) but looters, nonetheless. Those "service charges" (or whatever name they're arbitrarily given) are justified by lies, plain and simple. I know -- I was in the business. (Problem is, I'm too honest for that kind of work, not being a sociopath). PayPal is actually a better and deal than other systems out there (and quite versatile and user-friendly, too).
Here's an example of sentiments expressed about another system (as good a system as any out there, but with detractors, as they all have)
