In the course of rounding out my equipment, I have made a lot of small ebay purchases over the past couple of years, and have enjoyed the convenience of paypal. Extra shipping and handling costs to get a tracking number can add significantly to the cost of a small ticket item. 2) It is a sad commentary when two people can't even make an honest transaction without one party trying to screw the other one. 3) There is no impartiality in the system. The seller is presumed to be attempting to defraud the buyer right from the start. It makes one wonder if Paypal just got bought by UPS. William Robb
