The Armour Archive

Often the money from the order is paying the shipping costs. Paypal has held money up to 15 DAYS! For no apparent reason. This delays delivery on an off the shelf item which defeats the purpose of having ready made items ready to ship on instant turn around. I try to get things to people as quickly as possible and as cheaply as possible and paypal works against me more than they help. You can mail in a check and have it cleared faster than their electronic service. The costs involved in taking cards would add to much to the items I sell to make it worth having a CC machine. They bill me 3 ways and the customer as well. I am sorry for the inconvenience that this causes but until there is a better way we will only take checks or money orders in an effort to save our clients as much as possible

Thank you

As someone's .sig here on the Archive notes "Mean and funny is still funny", and while the Regretsy site DOES poke fun at some of the stuff people post on Etsy, she also DOES do a shitload of work for charity - so in my mind, it balances out pretty well, especially since the whole PayPal flap occurred during and attempt to use PayPal for charitable purposes.
