I use a PayPal merchant account for my very small side-business, selling a specialized gadget that's not very expensive. Over the past 7 years, PayPal has been utterly flawless. I have had zero issues. I monitor web forum chat, and enough people have commented about my product that I would know it if someone had a bad experience, or was reluctant to buy from me, due to PayPal.
This is without discounting any of the horror stories that I've read. In my little niche market, those stories tend to involve the eBay side of PayPal.
Once in a while I research alternatives to PP, and have really not found one that caters to the super-small business.
