hankronI'm an active eBay buyer and seller. As a buyer I usually buy inexpensive things. I always prefer to pay with PayPal, because it's so fast and simple. I will write a personal check as needed, though don't want to do it too often because it's a hassle. If the seller accepts only MO or straight credit card, I will pass unless it's something I really need and is higher priced-- which means I'll usually pass.
As a seller, I accept PayPal. Most pay with PayPal, but a fair number of buyers pay with check or money order anyway. There are buyers on eBay who don't have a PayPal account.
