Making a long story short, I purchased an oscommerce website thru http://www.websites2buy.com and all was ok. The checkout/payment method was Paypal so I wasn’t worried about an internet checkout. I got my hosting thru Paramount Internet and same thing. The http://www.showmemyebooks.com website is doing great and no maintenence for me but hosting. Someone buys something thru my paypal and then they download it. I never ship anything.
I recommend paypal in an online transaction whether its a website or ebay-

Police say Macaulay Culkin’s sister Dakota Culkin was killed after she stepped in front of a car in west Los Angeles.
Police spokesman Richard French says Dakota Culkin was struck Tuesday night after she stepped into the street. She died a day later at a Los Angeles hospital after suffering massive head injuries.
French says there is no active criminal investigation.
Police say the driver stopped and tried to help the 29-year-old. Officers determined the motorist wasn’t driving drunk and followed all laws.
Macaulay Culkin’s spokeswoman, Michelle Bega, said it was a “terrible tragic accident” and the family had no further comment.
The 28-year-old actor starred in the “Home Alone” films.
Today read Google. Excellent film and Calkin wonderful actor. But why God takes the youngest?
