Default I don't have any hard data to back it up, but when it comes to Paypal

versus other credit card processors, there are both pluses and minuses....

On the plus side for Paypal, some people have money sitting in their Paypal account, and they'd like to spend it. So if you take Paypal, they'd be happy to spend their money with you...

However, not everyone has a Paypal account, and may not feel comfortable enough to get one.

If you use Paypal, it's easy to think that everyone uses Paypal too. However, if you sell on eBay, you'll come across many who do not have Paypal accounts. So, if you only take Paypal payments, you could be losing sales....
