Hi Seclinix,
I use Paypal and no other shopping cart and I've had very few problems at all. My only concern is that my readers from Africa haven't been able to purchase - I ran into that twice.

I sell ebooks and an ecourse on my site. All 100% downloadable stuff. Paypal has made that very easy.

I'm moving toward other types of monetizing soon, and I haven't yet seen where I need anything "more" than Paypal.

One info-marketer I read (doesn't matter who) sent an email yesterday that stated that he has readers who don't like Paypal, who just want to pay with a credit card - so he had to add a shopping cart feature to his purchase area for a launch of a product he's selling.

I was a bit surprised at this- but I know some people don't like Paypal and he was able to easily accommodate these folks. With a large enough profit potential and a big enough readership, I can see how this move could make sense.

One last thing: I haven't tried a Paypal shop yet. I keep thinking I will, but never got around to it. Hard to say if it would be worth it in my case.
