Hi Douglas Most of the comments on the glass phonograph in question are written with a huge dose of sarcasm as its such an obvious modern fake. As a decoration I think the idea may not be bad (ok minus all the unnecessary garlandish stuff on this one) as one could then see all the working

I have had a PayPal account since they first started. That initially was a personal account that was used for payments. The account was subsequently upgraded to a Premier account. I have never had any problems at all with the account. I do sell high dollar items on eBay and accept payment

What problems? I have never heard of Paypal problems. I consider my Paypal account to be far more secure than using a credit card. (you can get a credit card number stolen or misused by any dishonest merchant). Whereas I don't know of anyway to misuse Paypal. Jim On Sep 23, 2008, at 7:11

Hi Dave, I have had PayPal for a number of years and have never had a problem. I have only used it to buy-since I never yet have sold anything. I have more issues with collecting on insurance claims from the Post Office but that's a different issue. Best wishes, Leon

Hi Dave, I have used PayPal for a number of years now and really have never had any problems. However, I am using it as a buyer. I understand that if you are using it as a seller and are dealing in many low priced items, the commissions they charge can be onerous. I think that sellers

There are ways, and it has happened. But not to me, not once, not a single PayPal problem, and I've had an account practically since they opened. I find myself using it for more and more things beyond eBay at this point, in fact. Best, Robert - Original Message - From: Jim Nichol

PayPal has been great to me I have had no problems. You can use a credit card and I would recommend this for added protection when you pay someone you are not sure of. I have had PayPal since it was free. PayPal is like any other thing you have to avoid the weak areas. Poor customer

I've gotten to the point where I rarely buy anything on ebay if the seller does not take paypal. The only issues I have had (and there have been very few) with ebay have not involved paypal. I consider it a safe and secure way to pay for online merchandise. It keeps my credit card and bank account
