I found this information that might help those who are interested in Google Checkout......
How to use Google Checkout on eBay"
In order to use Google Checkout as a eBay seller you have to go
around
the eBay rules a little.
You can NEVER ever mention the words Google Checkout in you ad EVER.
You can NEVER ever mention the words Google Checkout in the eBay
based
message system EVER.
Here is how I do it.
In your eBay preferences you have to go in and turn OFF ALL the
Paypal
stuff.
In my ads I state that I accept Money orders, Visa, Mastercard,
Discoverm, & Amex.
After a auction ends I send the buyer a eBay invoice/message stating
that I will be sending a invoice from my payment processor to their
email.
I receive the eBay email of a "Sold Item".
I open Google Checkout and go to the invoice page.
I copy paste the buyers email, name, and item they won, from the eBay
"Item Sold email", into the Google Checkout invoice.
I add up the cost of the item + the shipping cost.
Place this $$ into the invoice.
In the message part of the invoice I tell them that thhis is the
invoice that they need to pay from and to follow the link with the
total amount.
I send the invoice to the buyer via regular email.
I then go BACK into eBay and send the buyer another eBay message.
In this 2nd eBay messge I tell the buyer to go and check their
regular
email for the invoice from my payment processor.
They pay for the item using Google Checkout.
I use USPS Click & Ship to the the online postage (free delivery
confirmation)
Post the delivery confirmation to the Google Checkout page.
You can NEVER mention Google Checkout anywhere in your eBay ad OR in
the eBay message system.
This will throw up a flag in the eBay system.
eBay does not like Google Checkout at all....
Why???? Because you are NOT using Paypal and eBay owns Paypal and
eBay
is losing their Paypal fees.
I usually have about 1 in 10 that will not use Google Checkout and
opt
for a Money Order.
I usually have about 1 in 10 that will not use Google Checkout and
simply NOT pay for the item.
I usually have about 8 in 10 that will use Google Checkout and never
complain.
That is the simple "How to use Google Checkout on eBay"
