I've read of at least 3 deaths, 1 coma, and various other issues to BL members, since joining. I will continue to use PayPal for this extra piece of mind that my buyers have protection should something happen.    I just feel very uncomfortable with the thought that I got this far with my business, and the road towards it has collapsed behind me.. the more open this place is to everyone, the better.. a few percent more scams but a manyfold multiplication of the market potential.
