Default Would you order from a site that uses paypal?

Would you order from a site that uses paypal? Like when you click the "buy now" button and it takes you to paypal's order form.
seems like a hassle to order and stuff, any comments on this?

I think many, many people use paypal with no problems.
Maybe a hassle at first signing up, but in the long run, probably well worth it.

ok just wondering, because it is not an easy process to order, so i have seen so far when using paypal and you do not have an account set up yet.
Maybe it is easier after the first purchase.

I use Paypal alot especially since I deal alot with eBay. I have not had any problems with Paypal and it's smooth sailing once you're verified.

it is hybrid-motorsports.com
I think that they are transitioning from paypal to some new form of ordering process cause part of the site is paypal but the other part of the site is some other form of ordering.
I did finally place my order and so far so good, i ordered an Injen cold air intake on thursday @ like 11 am and i had a tracking number friday morning for my order. I ordered on the part of the site that was not using paypal though. I didn't want to set up an account and wait so long.

PayPal is great for buyers. However, I sell on eBay, and as a seller I can tell you that's where the risk lies. My biggest problem with PayPal is, there is no way to pre-authorize credit card purchases. So, for instance, if a buyer pays with a stolen credit card, it gets charged-back to the seller. This may take 2-3 weeks to occur, and the seller is out the merchandise and out the money. Sellers routinely get shafted by PayPal. Buyers don't.

Anyway, my suggestion is to use PayPal and fund it with a credit card. That way you are covered two different ways against fraud on the sellers part - PayPal and your credit card issuer.

... because it is not an easy process...
Oh, yeah, BTW - when you use PayPal to buy something on eBay, just go to your PayPal account and do a "Auction Finder" search. It will find the item you bought and fill-in all the forms for you, except the shipping charges. That's the easiest 'process' to use.
