I have signed up, but I am very doubtful this will take on. So many sites have tried this, even Google couldnt topple paypal, they made a dent, but not enough. Also, ebay wont allow Google checkout, claiming its not safe. Ebay does what they want to..... and they have no competition.

yea, many people feel that paypal is to powerful and nothing will beat it, but maybe this will be good for planted tank members, you get 25 bucks free!

**fishsandwitch** · 05-11-2008, 08:09 PM

can you take money out of your account and deposit it into your bank account?

**fishman9809** · 05-11-2008, 08:12 PM

i have no idea, i havent got it, yet.

**fishman9809** · 05-11-2008, 08:13 PM

the reason I selected yes is becuase I am planning on getting it, its 25 for free!!!

Matsu49 · 05-11-2008, 10:10 PM

I don't use it nor have I heard of it before. I'll just stick to the trusty Paypal. So far I've never had any problems.

**dthb4438** · 05-11-2008, 10:13 PM

I have it and plan to use it...hopefully when we sell or buy items from other members, we can ask if that person uses or has subscribed to it.

**fishsandwitch** · 05-11-2008, 10:35 PM

I have it also, but only planning on using it here.

Once folks use the free 25, it will die off like the rest. Paypal is here to stay.

Competetion is good. RME is backed by some heavy hitters. We'll see if they can give paypal a run for its money.

**chaznsc** · 05-12-2008, 12:21 AM

It will never happen. Paypal is too embedded. Ebay wont allow competition, and that where a lot of the deal is. People arent likely to use 2 or more different pay services.

I agree as far as paypal goes but I think this service is perfect for hobbyists and collectors who frequent forums and message boards as well as craigslist users
