Hey, recently it was brought up by some not to use paypal for ebay. I was wondering what are safer alternatives. BEcause honestly i thought paypal was the safest bet.

Paypal is the safest, but if you don't want to risk losing all the money you have in your account on bullshit, send money orders w/ like delievery conformation or something.

I dont keep any money in my paypal account. I just list credit cards. My bank acount info is on there but it was only used to verify, i dont transfer any money from it.

Yeah, one other option is bidpay, but they actually charge the buyer rather than the seller. Since paypal and ebay are now like one company, using it is almost too easy. either that, or just accept money orders/checks (but you will probably get some hate mail and so on and so forth)

We're going off topic anyways.
When do you think Google Wallet is coming out? Are there any confirmed screenshots or anything "official" from Google?

a lot of people on paypal are looking to buy with their credit/debit card, so if you can get yourself a merchant account you can cut paypal out of it and just process cards yourself.
