Hi:
I have made about 60 purchases with ebay/paypal.
in fact, i don't do business with anyone unless they do accept paypal
It is a fast timely way to get my product, for instance i bought something
last tuesday, paid for it, and i received it on Friday.
I have also used paypal for about 2 dozen non-ebay transactions.
Just to keep this on-topic a little, my girlfriend (who is sighted) buys
books off ebay. Of course now that i introduced her to bookshare she will
probably be scanning a majority of them. (smile)
I was going to see her today but she said she wanted to scan and validate
some more. (guess i know where i stand) (smile)
