Jonas, that's absolutely true. For some reason merchant services establishments aren't insane like that. I mean they all have their own risk management departments to first approve you, and then monitor approvals for each transaction. They just want the money flow uninterrupted. But you'd think that all the other "alternative payment solutions" companies would be forever interested in keeping sellers selling, collecting processing fees and all that, but no... there's something about their mentality that either we don't get or there's something else going on... If we figure that the "something else" part is about money, the it's doubly weird that they don't want your fees to roll in forever. Merchant services companies fight tooth and nail for accounts, it's a cutthroat business out there. And you have to make either a huge boo-boo or many many small ones to get screwed out of using your merchant account altogether.
So what you guys are saying is that, it'd be best to register a business, roll out a website, get approved for a merchant account and sell like that? It's funny, really, because I work for a merchant services company myself and see this happen every day, but I was hoping to sell off what I have on ebay or elsewhere, and then just be done with it.
