I will still use Ebay myself, but will not pay for items
electronically.


What I find so funny is that we are all paranoid (me too) about not

using
our
credit card on-line, but will happily hand it over in restaurants

orwhathaveyou
where they might be just as untrustworthy !


I am afraid that I am paranoid about that as well. I don't like the way

the
card gets whisked away into the nether regions and pushed through some
secret machine. I always draw cash before going to a restaurant.

What difference does it mak,e they have the details from the transacion
anyway, and there is nothing to stop them being put online should someone
wish to.
