Two years ago about 60% of my UK sales were via PP the rest cheques.
For outside of the UK I only accept PP, I may not like the fees but the qty of international sales made it worth the cost.
Another plus point is that buyers are more likely to impulse purchase with PP as opposed to writing out a cheque and an envelope, stamping it posting it and waiting forever for it to clear assuming the post office do not mis-deliver it.
I do not really mind the PP fees when weighed up against banking numerous cheques, it's not perfect but I will always offer it
