Saying that I shouldn’t complain, the tools they provide for free are more than worth handing over a couple for quid for.

Google is the King of the Internet. Don’t think I would want to mess around with them unless I can gather a petition with billions of signatures on it.

Touche! LoL!

Can we not just buy them out instead?

Try to get more sales to reduce the fees then.

Yeah thay have, the adsense incentive it totally scrapped and all prices match Paypal exactly with regards charging by percentage with 20p per transaction…AND…they are charging 1% on top if your customer is from a different merchant country!!

Anyone would think Paypal has just bought them out. Terrible move I think, but what choices are we left with?

I think I read about that on Silicon Valley Insider where they claim that Google might be moving away from their usual free model to charge users in order to boost their profits.

I’ll be one to admit that I do occasionally drag my heels, hence I’m commenting here rather than seeing if I can get Google Checkout to work on my site right now LoL! (Just noticed their price structure is changing to match Paypal Grr!)

And on that note…better go do some work!
