You are correct. It was called, "Billpoint" and it was a complete disaster. Sad thing is once eBay purchased PayPal, it has become just as much a disaster.

I offer Google Checkout to all of my customers in my end of auction e-mail and only accept Google Checkout for online payments from international and have had great success doing so. Wouldn't think of accepting PayPal from international. That's like putting gas on the fire.

As far as Bidpay, ever since their first go around didn't work out so well, I never even bothered to use them the second time around, especially with their fees to do so.
