You suck for linking to a page which tried (and failed) to infect my PC.
Now if only someone would come up with an ebay killer and we can say good riddance to ebay and paypal.
Does anyone know if there is any fees associated with this? If this is completely free I might give it a try.
A lot of people buying online will have an Amazon / Ebay account... if amazon can cut the fees that Ebay offer then people will use it.
We don't need a PayPal alternative. Try something else, Amazon, or stick to your core competency.
