Thats what I've been doing for a couple of years now. Its a bit inconvenient, but worth it to me to make a stand.
A stand? I'll ask again, do you know the "stances" of all of the companies you do business with?
No but I can't stand someone or some company trying to tell me what I can and can't purchase. If I want to use Paypal to buy Horse "Poo" why would or should they care? There business is to transfer funds not decide what I am allowed to purchase. It's not a "Stand" TX it's the prinicple of the matter. I got nothing but canned answers when I asked them why they refuse to let people buy gun supplies.

Now don't get me wrong, I respect their right to spend their money on what ever they please. Heck, they can fund Hillary's campaign for all I care but how dare they decide what I spend my money on. Now I have to go to Wal-Mart and buy ammo just to spite them!

I sent them a couple of really nice e-mails asking why they choose not to be used for firearms and supplies and all I got was them quoting the rules to me. Weird people. I cancelled my account. I'll send money orders

I know that they are times when I can't avoid it, but I will always try to buy from some one who is at least neutral or on the same side as I am.
Well, I wrote Paypal and asked them about it. We'll see what i get back from them.

I bought a GLOCK T-shirt from someone, and apparently that tripped paypal's word filters.

Never again.
I thought I paid for my holster at Crossbreed via paypal... Hmmm!

I don't know, I guess it depends on how much they tick me off. If E-bay and Paypal don't want to deal firearm supplies I guess that's their right but if they were to start bashing guns and gun owners then I would treat them like I do the Dixie Chick and half of Holywood! (The 10 year old rule stops me from explaining) :cool:
