Which ever the buyer uses is the best. If you want a system with no downside or you're prone to panic then get a cigar box and operate out of that.

I have yet to use yahooDirect but x.com seems to be the best for me, I don't know why everybody is so down on it.

I take Yahoo! PayDirect which has worked very well so far. Free to seller and buyer
ExchangePath--Like PP except buyers can use Visa, MC, Diners Club, AMEX, Discover, Visa and MC label debit cards, checking, etc. Has worked smoothly for me so far, but not too much use yet as it is not as well known.
EnergyFlow--costs to the buyer, but will accept international transactions plus AMEX and Discover are accepted as well as visa and MC.
BidPay--Costs to the buyer are higher than EnergyFlow. This is an international Money order Company. Makes it faster and easier for international customers though.
Yeah, I take PayPal for the present and have always liked them (even when they took $25.00 OUT of my checking account and that was BEFORE the infamous verification when they were only supposed to be able to DEPOSIT into my account!--but after a few months and many faxes, e-mails and calls, I did get it back) but will decline to use them depending on their newest TOS come Oct. 1. I will not use them if there is a percentage charge PLUS .25 on ALL transactions as they have indicated. And how they are intending to enforce upgrades without FORCING upgrades, but that is another thread...
