  With Paypal 2nd attempt at sneaking their misinformation clause into its most
recent TOS agreement, I'm wondering if alternate forms of payment are being
considered for "Onsite Payment".

I would love to switch to another platform, however, at this point Paypal is
a must, to effectively buy or sell on BL.

Stripe - and I think that's it and that's all.
No problem with Stripe for years here.

Thank you. I'll have to look into setting up a stripe account. I didn't
even know this was an option!

We actually don't know if it's an option with BL because we haven't
heard from an admin about anything. And how does Stripe work? Are credit card
charge backs a regular thing with buyers?? Can a seller easily be scammed by
a buyer using this?

Bricklink needs to add more payment options as other platforms allow for many
other payment methods including accepting Bitcoin for payment! I accept Crypto
but I can't sell to USA buyers unless I use PayPal on Bricklink but I don't
want to use PP for many reasons and now with this new scam PP is doing, it makes
everyone want to leave PayPal!!
