Moneybookers - The safer choice?

    Okay, I have been using PayPal since I first started domaining. Unfortunately, I have lost a couple hundred dollars over the past few months because of scammers using PayPal's chargeback system, and how they don't offer any intangible item protection.

    Now, I have heard a lot of good things about MoneyBookers as a safer choice for sellers because it protects them against the chargeback system.

    So is MoneyBookers the safest choice as a seller? Are there any real flaws to their system? Is MoneyBookers just as safe for buyers, if there is no chargeback system? Because if the buyer pays, and doesn't get the domains, and there is no chargeback system, what happens?

    Anyways, thanks in advanced for your answers and help!

    i think it is the same as with paypal, people can do chargeback, your account can be limited and closed without any reason

    MB has treated me well, and they are in the U.K., but I think they still support chargeback.

    Hmmm, I am hearing many different things now about this charge back??? Ummm, I thought there wasn't because with moneybookers you deal with cold hard cash? Hmmm, any one else want to way in...I mean, this is the like biggest issue...If they support charge back, they are no different then PayPal I am assuming...

    Egold is a very dangerous processor. I would go with AlertPay...seems good for chargebacks and such.

    Hmmm, why would so few people be paying with MB when it appears to be the best?
