I’ve been working in the last few years of getting rid of big tech services. PayPal and Amazon are left. I’ve been questioning the need for PayPal in a world of virtual credit cards. My main reason for using it was security of purchase but I feel this need is no longer there. BTW, equivalent EU service to PayPal that is equally well accepted? Feels like this one may be more difficult to satisfy.

    Amazon charged that vender 40-50% in fees for using their marketplace. You didn’t get “free shipping”.

      From my end I cannot always use private vendors without paying more and it taking longer.

      That said I bet I have bought less from them in my lifetime than you have.

      Help fix the post office then tell me to totally drop them.
