I have used PayPal for my ebay sales and find it to be cost-prohibitive.

If you think PayPal is expensive, wait til you see the fees with a merchant account. For website transactions, PayPal is the way to go. If your business website is a legitimate business, you should be able to write off the fees as "cost of doing business." If you are not a legitimate business, you should be for that reason. Your website fees, internet provider fees, and even computer depreciation is tax deductible.

Check out citymaker.com. The offer comprehensive web hosting and merchant services for the site. All fully integrated. You set up your shopping cart with your merchandise, then when purchases are made using a credit card of paypal, the money is automatically deposited into your account. Standing monthly fee for the merchant account is around $35.00. Then there is the credit card fee which can range from 1.5-4% depending of the type of card and transaction. Overall, it is very easy and great for a small business.
