But there is some expense involved in setting up for taking a "real" credit card (or so I hear-- I'm not a business.) And yes, there are horror stories with Paypal-- as there are with pretty much every business. But most of the time, it works-- or they would be out of business. (My horror-ish story-- someone in Germany once got into my Paypal account somehow-- spent close to $400 from my bank account-- Paypal e-mailed me about unusual purchases, I confirmed I didn't make them, within a few days they refunded me the money.)

There is the possibility that those who refuse to use Paypal are considered an eccentric minority-- and one that he is willing to write off. Just as there are people who don't use/can't get credit cards of any type, and want to send cash or money orders through the mail-- most e-commerce businesses are willing to write off those potential customers, considering the risks and costs of dealing with cash more than that minority is worth.
