Question for you eBayers, or buyers in general

[RagingBITCH]

Quick question: when you see an auction or a FS thread for an item you like, how much does it discourage you from bidding/buying if it's money order only as opposed to having Paypal as an option?

I've been a little cautious about accepting Paypal for various reasons. Is the non-cc Paypal safer than the cc-Paypal?

I have no problems with Paypal. I've done over a 1000 transaction using PayPal and ebay.

I only use Paypal, I do not use any other sort of payment option when buying or selling. I've never had a problem

I accept just about anything. While money orders are slow, if the buyer knows the time it takes, then it's fine(no fees). As far as buying goes, I only send paypal, unless it is something really rare from a seller with excellent standing. I will usually talk them into letting me send a check instead.

Depends on how quickly I need the item. MO requires that I go and buy it, then wait for you to receive it and verify that it's legitimate.

As for PayPal, I think non-CC is better because no chargebacks?
