I hate PP. That said I do an incredible amount of business with vendors that only use PP and have never had one problem transaction.

...never had one problem transaction...

They say we can't argue w/ success, though that's were most folks like to spend their time.  My experience w/ PP was the excessive surprise hidden fees along with the inconvenience.   The main thing that keeps me from using PP now is the fact that there are so many easier methods of paying online.  If that changes then I suppose I'll become a regular happy PP customer.
