I think what Mike meant is that if you're paying by Paypal, it has to be by
eCheck or balance transfer, not CC.
I just went to sign up for Paypal, and stopped. Not out of any objection to
policies, or fee structures, no. It's because they require one of the most
pointless bits of information before they'll process your submission - your
country code.
Wha?? I don't have a freakin' clue what my country code is. And why the
heck do they NEED it? It's not optional information like say, your postal code.
Heaven forbid that they link to a list of country codes on the off chance
that your average Joe doesn't know his.
(Yes, I realize that the country code is more relevant in Europe than it is
in North America. But it's still not something that should be required info.)
