yes.... we bought something and found not only did the hoser NOT take pay
pal they wanted excessive shipping...
so not only was it an expensive purchase for something minor it was a pain
in the ass to get a check cut though payables dept.
needles to say that seller has over a period of time deprived himself of
thousands we might have spent....
best way to handle it is just grit your teeth and not buy anything from
them....
