Cary,

But my question is why? It looks like PayPal allow you to accept credit
card charges at no cost. Is there some disadvantage to using PayPal
instead? Is your credit card transaction equally cost-less?

Oops, I was thinking about this pushing carts in the rain, and I forgot the
biggest reason of all! When an order uses the credit card, it does my
real-time inventory management for me. So if someone bought 8 of the 102 Jar
Jar's or whatever, it would automatically updates the inventory, from 102 to
94. When a paypal.com or another type of payment goes through, I have to
manually redo the inventory. Not too big of deal, but time is precious to
me! That is why the credit card's are important. : )
