On this note though, if you want to accept outside of paypal, you can.  
If they pay by another means (Im in canada, so for me, EMT is the  
payment of choice, deposited right into my checking in an hour), just  
have them do that, and once payment has cleared, just mark the item as  
paid on your seller page. This is what I do all the time, and Im sure  
its not what eBay is looking for, it is a profit loss, but still, it  
works for me.
