Hi Joe,
I really like eBay also, and generally pay by Paypal. It's easy to set up
a Paypal account, with or without eBay, and you could take payments
through that. People could then use credit cards through Paypal to pay
you.
The other thing I like about eBay is the feedback rating. I have never had
trouble from anyone with a feedback of over abuot 98%.
I don't know if the scammers plague eBay like they do on the eHam.net
sales board. Probably not, as they would get reported and lose their
accounts pretty quickly. I mostly just buy things on eBay and have only
sold a couple things through there.
