I've been using Billpoint and although a half percent higher in fee and a
delay in check clearing it's just as easy and no limit for free accounts on
how much you accept in credit cards. It's tied to Ebay too and anyone
verified as an ebay user is 90% there to using Billpoint as all they need is
the finishes to open a Billpoint account. When I pay for an auction thru my
checking I use Paypal as it is automatic with no 3-4 day wait for clearing
(and no fee for me as buyer).

On the other hand, what about a vendor who

via Master Card/Visa, Money Order, etc. are acceptable, and later
in the text also adds that PayPal is allowed as well, but never says
that Master Card/Visa MUST be used via PayPal.
I think I've had a bidder confused because PayPal's logo GIF
includes the MC/VISA logos. I just pasted PayPal's HTML into
my description in order to get the click-me PayPal logo, but it
caused PayPal's MC/VISA logos to appear, too.
