I despise PayPal, have never had anything but trouble from them. When we would sell something (despite having perfect rating) they would randomly "hold" our money until they confirmed delivery. Every single time we ended up having to call them to have our money released.

Can't imagine how many millions of dollars they steal using peoples money to generate free interest for themselves, on top of their ridiculous fees.

Don't get me started with Paypal. Unfortunately I have to deal with them. I sell on ebay and there's no way around it.

This infuriates me to no end. 1. Paypal doesn't need to decide what I'm buying or not. Now its 'parenting' it seems. 2. People constantly purchase 'potentially dangerous devices' which could include corkscrews, beer bottle openers, rubber things for body orifices that (to my mind) seem medically impossible, lighters, weaponry any number of ......... or tobacco related paraphernalia... ...but for some reason let's stop people from using the service to purchase something that is probably IMPROVING their health.
But my stance is that its none of their business whether it does or does not improve health anyways. Of course, we all know this is lawyer stuff at the end of the day.
Annoying!

*Btw.. I don't like credit cards. So I tend to rely on PayPal for online stuff. So this is especially problematic for me. I shouldn't have to use Visa or Mastercard.
Grrrr!

There's a third option (sort of). Get one of those pre-paid "credit" cards, load it with just enough to cover your online uses. If nothing else, your real credit cards aren't imperiled.

YES YES YES to Dwolla. This is an up and coming company and everything I've read about them has been positive. It appears they have mastered the technology to quickly kick them up the ladder.

Dwolla is one company to watch. I would love to see them in the ecig market.

No, I don't know them personally. I do not own part of their company. I have read about them and watched them progress for quite awhile. I think they are a good company and have the potential to become a Great Company.

Yay, somebody knows Dwolla. They just care that whatever goods sold aren't illegal. I made a thread trying to get more people to us it here.
