    I'm looking into doing some e commerce for the first time and I'm going to start small and only use Google Checkout / Paypal buttons. Now I know Paypal buttons will collect the shipping information for me, but I'm not to sure if Google Checkout will...

    So does anyone know if Google Checkout will collect a buyer's shipping info?

    Also Google Checkout can be a bitch for new-accounts. I have had customers who's payment was declined and they were forced to send in docs (bill + ID scans) to get their payment processed. This is because Google stands behind their authorization and will not allow chargebacks to merchant once they authorize a card.
