In favor if there is some assurance you did it right. It's a huge convenience.
However I am just as happy to X/Paypal which requires no storage on your site.
(I am wondering if it is more convenient for the buyer to have Paypal generate
a payment request to the buyer, that drives the process to seller initiated
after the initial site visit)

Note that international folks won't agree, at least not until X/Paypal make it
to them (when is that, anyway... sigh)

Good luck, we need more parts sellers! Bricksmiths will keep you busy if you
let them...
