Has anyone used propay on their ebay listings?

I noticed ebay is starting to allow a service called pro-pay as competition to paypal. From what I have read its more costly than paypal, no seller protection and no customer service.....but it is an alternative to paypal, what do you think?

More costly, no customer service, and the User Interface isn't very advanced/easy to navigate at all.

I almost want to think they are owned/operated by Ebay/PayPal in an effort to discredit "other" forms of payment online.

Nelson: Hey Bill, have you tried ProPay? (As you asked..)

Bill: Yea I sure have buddy, don't waste your time, stick with PayPal, ProPay is nothin' but problems.

See what I mean? The other tidbit of information that leads me to believe they're in bed with the monster is the fact that they're the ONLY other verified form of payment as listed on Accepted Payments Policy while myriad other smaller payment programs (such as Allpay.net, cash2india, CertaPay, Checkfree.com, hyperwallet.com, Moneybookers.com, Nochex.com, Ozpay.biz, Paymate.com.au, XOOM) are noted as acceptable but not demandable in a space far below.

OR maybe they're just allowing the worst possible option to ward off FTC regulations?
