Why is it so hard to take your money?

November 25th, 2009 by Cynthia

As some of you may have experienced, PayPal payments don’t always work.  I have received a few complaints about PayPal, so I investigated other payment options.  Long story short, I now accept check or money orders through my Etsy store: bearduck.etsy.com I know it’s not the best solution, or even a good one, but it’s the best I can offer right now.  The whole situation is pretty annoying, since I don’t like dealing with paper money at all and I consider checks to be particularly outdated.  But adding credit card payments to my webstore is actually really expensive and more complicated than I can handle right now.  Hopefully I’ll be able to address that in the future, but until then we have checks and money order.  Whee.

p.s. Please note that the check/money order option is only available at my etsy store.  If you’re interested in something that is not listed, contact me and I’ll make a special listing especially for you!
