    5 Stars Virtual Currency That Makes You Rich - Quick Diamond review 26/11/2002
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Quick, simple to use, very user-friendly

    Disadvantages Disadvantages May become integrated into the eBay web site

    I’ve been using www.ebay.com now for the best part of two years. In that time, I’ve sold loads of different things, but mainly music CDs. In my experience, the way to really maximise your chances of getting good loot is to open your auction out to the global community. Sadly, this can lead to delays and complications for both parties, because cash payments take a long time to arrive. For my latest batch of auctions – some 500 in total – I decided that I really needed to enable an online payment method within my auctions, if I wanted to reduce the grief for everyone concerned. One of the most ... more

    5 Stars I WANT MY MONEY AND I WANT IT NOW. 06/08/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Swift transfer of money from one end of the world to the other.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages charges.

    I like Paypal. There are those who argue against it because of the charges that they levy for their services, but for me, it is a swift way of getting money from A to B, and if I have to pay a little for the use of their services, I really do not mind very much. WHAT IS PAYPAL ? Well its a secure way of getting money from A to B. Suppose for example, you want to sell something on Ebay (one of the auction sites on the internet). People place bids and you sell an item. Then you have to get the persons address and details of how much the postage costs, and doing everything by email and then post ... more

    4 Stars Pay anybody with an email address 01/06/2001
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fast and trustworthy, reduce bank commission charges

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Site can be slow loading

    If like me, you spend a lot of buying and selling at auctions, or have a website where you want to sell to folks worldwide, sending and receiving payments overseas can be a nightmare! Banks and Building Societies can charge you a fortune in commission for converting cheques into sterling (and vice versa) and you can lose a lot of profit. An alternative is PayPal, a simple and reliable way to send money to any email address in the world and accruing no commission charges. Although American based, international users can now take advantage of this useful means of sending and receiving cash ... more

    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages This service is fast, convenient, and free to individuals.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages You have to pay a small fee to have a check cut, and some people might inadvertently believe that this site is one hundred percent secure.

    5 Stars Faster Ebay transactions with Paypal 15/12/2002
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Quick, secure, easy

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Small charge made

    As you know I have recently opened a shop on Ebay selling watches and clocks – the shop address is on my Ciao home page if you’re interested. I had quite a few overseas bidders ask if I used any of the automated payment sites and I had to say ‘no’ and request cheques including an extra £5 costs so that they could be converted back to sterling by my bank. Clearly this isn’t a good idea and, if wanted my shop to be a success, I needed to sort out some kind of easy way for anyone to pay for the items that they had won. I decided to go for Paypal for two reasons – firstly I read some of the ... more
