Jeff DrumI don't "belong" to PayPal and it really hasn't prevented me from bidding on much that I wanted to on ebay. I use money orders exclusively and usually pick up 1 or 2 every morning at Texaco (Western Union) with my morning cup of coffee. Guy charges me .59 each for his trouble. On the off chance that I want to bid on a PayPal only auction I apply my Dog & Boat Principle - good to have a friend with one. Having never sold on ebay before I am sure it would be a different story as a seller if it limited my bidders and prices realized. What is the rationale behind a "PayPal Only" auction approach?
