It is just an intermediary service which allows individuals and businesses to make payments over the Web. You want to buy something on E-Bay, you tell paypal to pay $199 to the owner.... they take care of getting $199 to the owner they charge $199 to your credit card (plus a fee I think........this is apriori as I have never used it). I've heard before that things are a little gray once disputes occur. For example......suppose you get stiffed (product does not show). You take the problem up with your credit card company. Credit card company puts the appropriate credit to your account and takes it up with PayPal. Paypal pays up. Two weeks later, PayPal then sends you a separate invoice for $199 + charges. Do you HAVE to pay? What are your rights? (Sorry if I misunderstood your post/question). -- William Shatner's Trousers --

Basically that web page said so many bad things about them, are they true or false in those charges? *I am free now, to choose my own destiny.*

I see mass suicides and riots in the future as every urkel fashion sense inspired computer nerd throws down their oxy pads and mutters, "enough is enough," then takes to the streets, scsi cards in hand, and it will be dark, dark day indeed my friend.
