    @ post #4: Peckish, that is a great idea. I am so confused as to all this payment stuff works, I just don't bother. This might make it a little easier to feel comfortable doing it in the future. Thanks
    peace

    Over here in UK they are trying to stop personel checks. My own account has had no check book for about 6 years it was one of the first to stop them . Our post office has also changed it s method as well. Banks also do not write checks for you as they once did. If this is the case it is the charge to present to bank including the drive getting to an open bank to cash it in .

    I have never used Pay Pal, but I do know that Ted Storm's thumb thimble is legit. I considered purchasing either this one or Thimblelady's, but wanted to try it out before I spent $80 - $100 on a thimble. So, instead I bought a T. J. Lane thimble at Jinny Beyer's Studio and love it.

    I have had trouble with security on PayPal and had 7,000 dollars charged to my credit card that I hadn't done. Although Paypal was able to stop payment and they were able to fix my credit, I am still leery about using it with a credit card. Having said that I just used Paypal after a year of not purchasing anything on line but I now will buy a prepaid credit card to purchase items.

    I totally agree. I've had an account for about 7 years. I feel a bit uneasy when someone wants my CC #

    I do the same thing.

    Maybe everyone else loves pay pal but not me. My cred card # got hacked from their site what a horrible mess. Someone was shipping smart phones to Russia and charging them to me. My husband will not let me have a pay pal account since then and I don't blame him. Also, it was practically impossible trying to find a phone # for pay pal to straighten this out.

    You don't have to set up a paypal account. You can do a one-time deal. I did and it was fine. I was looking for the Wacky Spider web template from MSQC and no shop around here had it at the time. So I did a onetime pay-pal. It has to be something I really want or need for me to buy anything online.

    Love PayPal. Was afraid to try it but my son kept telling me it was the best way to go.
    Did try it and just love it. Makes buying so much easier. Give it a try think you will like it.
