NRA and Paypal

I dislike eBay essentially mandating PayPal, on top of the unpalatable paypal stipulations.

Do what I do, then.

I basically use eBay as a search engine, then find that seller outside or eBay. A lot of them are 5%-10% cheaper if you buy direct, too. Obviously this doesn't work for private parties, but most companies that have an eBay store also have a regular online storefront.

It sucks, I wish I could sell things without using eBay & Paypal, but with so many items, that's the only way they'll move for a decent amount.
 
I use PayPal occasionally, when it seems that PayPal is about the only thing I can go through for a particular item I need/want.

However, I circumvent PayPal with my "internet card". I have one credit card, and one credit card only, that I use for internet purchases. It has a specific, low dollar amount credit limit on it that I do not allow the credit card company to go above. It's sufficient for all my internet needs and if it's ever compromised, the absolute worse case scenario is that I have to pay the entire balance if the credit card company doesn't accept my dispute(s). And I can do that very readily, even if it's maxed out.
