    I would like to know if there is any alternative payment method other than paypal on ebay for non us resident. They put a 21 days hold on the payment. I ask 2checkout if I can use their payment system on ebay. They told me they don't support ebay.

    I don't do much on Ebay, but I have experienced your situation with Paypal, when I sold some stuff I had lying around. It's a pain. Try viewing some other auctions to see what payment processor others are using. Most of them will be using Paypal, but a lot of folks selling there have found other processors.

    Ebay and Paypal are the same company so they won't want extra competitions for themselves. Yes, Paypal is a pain but that's what happens with a monopoly.

    It's a fact . . . if you are on eBay then you use PayPal.

    If you are smart enough to find another payment processor
    to use on eBay . . . how many eBay users do you imagine will
    be using your new found payment processor.

    My guess is . . . very few.

    Ebay forces you to use Paypal when you sell, otherwise you can't list your product.

    Once upon a time when Meg Whitman was president of Ebay, you weren't forced to use Paypal when you sold things.

    I saw many are using 2checkout for payment processor. You can send invoice from 2checkout to your ebay customer.

    Paypal is better than 2checkout in terms of payment clearance. There's some news of ebay facilitating paypal more.

    I don't like paypal. They even have 21 days hold. Payment processor is one thing. I am also searching for good supplier on dell xps m1730 and bugaboo cameleon and other electronics. I go to Alibaba. But all of them are fake company. I can't find any good supplier. If anyone knows any good supplier or can supply dell xps m1730 and bugaboo cameleon, it would be a great help to let me know.

    They don't allow money orders and checks no more. just click the help link on the upper right side of the website and type in payment methods and you'd see other payment methods other than Paypal.
