Frosty,

I don't think PayPal is such a good idea at all. If the customer makes
a complaint, YOU will have to prove that you shipped the product in
good working order to get paid. I think there was a message on this
group about it. Anyways, I would not feel confortable sending money
all the way somewhere in the US when the store 1/2 an hour away. I'd
rather do it direct by credit card.

About the new web page, please keep it nice and clean as it is now :)

Spiro
