Thanks to all for the information. Think I'll give it a shot, even though I won't be selling much!

I have hundreds and hundreds of transactions via Paypal, both buying and selling and if there ever was any kind of hiccup, it was always fixed! In my opinion, VERY SAFE!

I love paypal, they have wonderful customer service, if you have any questions or concerns give them a call, i know they would be happy to answer any question you have. I highly recommend them.

It is safe and I think if you have an account already established it works both ways-for payment and receipt, but check on that.

I have used paypal for many years. only to buy and I have only had 1 problem when a scammer got my money. I still haven't had a reply from the complaints department.
but I also have an account I only use for paypal and only keep a small ballance in it. so the scammer only just got a few dollars.

I've used paypal for many years. Only problem I have with it is when I sell something the fees are to me unreasonable. But still safe

Paypal is safe, both ways. You have some buyer protections that way, as well. The only problem is that the fees for receiving money really eat into your profit. Especially when the amount is small. On my acct. they charge a 'per transaction' fee of $.30, as well as charging nearly 3 percent of the amount. If I sell $4.00 worth of fabric here, the paypal charge would be $.42, which is more than 10% of the payment received! I have started adding that charge back to the buyer, if they want to use Paypal. Be sure to take the charges into consideration. They add up.
