[QUOTE="Paladin, post: 337162, member: 263"] [b]Reply Directly from Derek[/b] Derek answers the questions about payments: "Basically, I use PayPal buttons because they're easiest to set up and pretty much everyone can set up a PayPal account. Everything on my site has a "release date" or an "available" or "in stock" above it letting you know the status of items. Of course that's not fail-safe as sometimes 5 people will order my last 4 Dragon #292s and then I'm out of stock." "When you order using PayPal it says right on the shopping cart what you're being charged. There's no misdirection. When I get advanced payment this go towards my gaming orders as everything I order I have to pay COD for. Since I have to pay COD (to the book distributor) I have to have the money before hand. If not, I can't get the books. COD isn't great but once it's paid I don't have to worry about a bill or anything." "When I take credit cards directly over the phone or however I don't put a charge on those until a couple of days before I get the product from my distributor or the day before I send it out. I know that not everyone trusts giving out their credit card number so that's not always an option." "Believe me I'm not going to rip anyone off. I've been doing this for over 7 and half years and I'm not going anywhere. I may have gotten behind but I'm not ripping anyone off." On the not posting here problem: Here's a link on his site of a screen print he made when this first started happening (it's still the same today.) As you can see, posting would be HARD: [url]www.taloncomics.com/enworldweird.jpg[/url] If any computer gurus have an idea of what's going on, please let us know. Apparently if someone sends him a link directly to a thread he can then read it. Otherwise, he's hosed. [/QUOTE]
