We do paypal for our publishing business and have had no problems but
I have had one horrendous experience using them personally for an ebay
sell and I will try to avoid them in the future if at all possible. Do
a google search on people hating paypal and you will get a taste of it
(has nothing to do with spam but accounts being locked with funds up
to six months).
