Hi, would appreciate any feedback from sellers re the use of Paypal. I have been using them for several years. Now we live in France and sell from here, and the euro/dollar difference is really hurting. So I am trying to save money wherever I can. Please advise if anyone has any figures on whether you lose sales by not offering Paypal. Thanks in advance. Steve

Steve,
Yes, you will loose a lot of sale.
I try to force my international buyers to use www.moneybookers.com but I encounter a lot of resistance. www.bidpay.com is out of business so the only other option is direct credit card but they charge as much as Paypal.
Because I'm US based seller, weak Dollar generates a lot of international sale and Paypal is the only way buyers want to pay.
