Hmm, weird won't let me edit post in this category so wanted to add a couple of items of note. One is I also use paypal and google checkout. In my case might be different for others with the choice between credit card, paypal or google checkout on one chooses them but always uses credit card.
I have been a paypal business member since 2000 and used to do all of my business thru paypal. I sitll average about 20-30k annually thru them and I keep them as a "necessary evil" but I don't encourage anyone to use them exclusively they suck. Customer support is horrible and they always side with the buyer. Talk to customers and ask them and they will tell you they won't use paypal. Paypal even admits somewhere or used to in some documentation somewhere that 20-30% of potential customers will abandon the purchase if it goes to paypal. Now if that's all you can do well they are better than nothing at all and don't get me wrong they have their positives I just can't think of any over a merchant credit card account.
