A nice thought, and many thanks, but I would not touch amazon with a 100ft pole, or even a 10000ft pole. :-)

I detest the company, and will never go anywhere near anything with amazon associated with it.

If evil was an entity, it would be named amazon, or apple, or google, or meta etc...

As far as I understand (if I am not mistaken) you are in rebellion against the system in the world.. Do you want to sell Positron only to European countries that have PayPal, and not to the whole world?

I had made a promise to contribute to the development of "positron";
I am speaking on my behalf, all I could do was to regularly re-buy positron from "ebay". (I could only buy it from ebay, because paypal is not active for Turkey)

But now it is not available on ebay either!!

So what will I do and those who want to contribute like me or buy the latest version of Positron? Those who live in countries where paypal is not active!!

Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do, as I cannot afford a merchant bank account, and I will never give out details for a bank account. Hence, why I no longer use ebay, because it has gotten into bed with the devils.

Many thanks for your thoughts.

Best regards
Les

I am not sure a merchant bank account would be required, an ordinary Current account for people to pay into should suffice, and while I understand a reluctance to give out bank account details my bank stated it needs more that just the account number and sort code to do anything, even online as now that usually requires 2 factor authentication.
It's odd that you are told not to give out those details, yet when you write a cheque they are by necessity clearly displayed on the bottom of it so the banks know which account to debit, yet that is effectively also giving the recipient those details.

Speaking of cheques, could be an option for those without PayPal?
I know many banks do not issue chequebooks with their current accounts now unless you ask for one, but I think it should still be possible for those who do not have a cheque book to obtain a banker draft.

Les,

many authors on Substack use this for small payments, might be worth using?

You could put a link for donations on the bottom of all your forum replies.

Maybe Western Union could be an option if the client is willing to accept the charges.
