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.

73, Zack W9SZ
