Problem is that Paypal has and is ebay. No moneybookers or the like is ever going to get their portal links under every noob's nose like that. It's a absolute, indisputable monopoly and the beuracracy there shows signs of incredible growth now that they are used to their role as overlords.
There are many ways pp can and does fuck you every day. Both as a customer and as a seller. I'm still steaming about what they did to me a month ago...
I once wanted to buy a domain that came off auction for $97. It was time sensitive, naturally. I had funds in the linked-to-pp bank account, but it just wouldn't draw... I then sent $100 from a different account to that one, they still wouldn't let me buy it. Not with the credit card either. The purchase just wouldn't go through and they didn't say why.
So I got one of those dickweeds on the phone and although she had all the tools right there to look up the transaction and everything, she couldn't tell me why it wouldn't go through. It was just "Blocked by our Security algorithm."
Long story short, I missed the purchase, it's long gone.
3 days later I got an email saying that my account could make transactions again, and that I basically should stop trying to purchase things that credit card thieves would want to purchase.

I WAS BUYING DOMAINS FROM A FUCKING REGISTRAR SERVICE. :angryfire:
Crotch smokers. :action-smiley-052:
I'd threaten a lawsuit, but they know damn well this is the land of mitigational opportunity and they are more likely to afford OJ's lawyer than I am.
I'd go over to moneybookers but then I'd never be able to buy anything!
What a rigged fucking world this is. Reminds me of communism.
Exactly, it makes no sense when paypal has a monopoly share. Nothing else can compare to pp, not mooneybookers, not checkout. That is the worst part!!!!
