These are the things that I love: Pay Pal and Steep and Cheap. Here's why:
So I got that baby backpack of steep and cheap a couple weeks ago and I realized that it didn't come with the topper shade thing that the website showed it coming with. So I emailed steep and cheap and told them that I think my backpack was missing the topper and they said that since they don't have any more of those backpacks that I'll have to return it for a full refund. I told them that I liked the backpack and wanted to keep it and since a new topper would cost $30, that they could just refund me $30. I didn't think they would do this, but I got a response right away saying that the $30 would be refunded to my card. And it was just a couple of days later! Go steep and cheap!
So then Im on the Sherpani website and I found the topper that I needed to buy and when I was ready to checkout I saw the regular crap you have to fill out each time you buy something off the internet: name, address, phone number, credit card info, etc. Then I remembered that I had downloaded and installed the PayPal plugin that was supposed to take care of all this crap for you. I'd never used it before so I thought I'd give it a shot. So I clicked the little P that is now in my Internet Explorer toolbar and I logged into PayPal. Then wham! It filled out the whole page for me, all my personal info, name, address, and the credit card number! But whats cool is that it doesn't use a real credit card number. It uses a one time credit card number that is generated by PayPal. The funds are then taken out of your paypal account just like as if you bought something off ebay and used paypal. So, not only do you not have to fill out the information page, but your not putting your credit card number on the internet, so its safer in that respect. Im sold on the paypal plugin.
