On my site I installed a new shopping cart powered by ecwid.com to sell some of my stuff, it's way better then the hacked together one I did with Paypal. For payment processing it supports Paypal, Google Checkout, merchant services like authorize.net and 2checkout.com, along with phone orders and a few other options. Because I'm not a major business I can't afford or justify having a merchant services account, which leaves me with Paypal and Google Checkout.
Both are configured, to give the buyer an option to pay, but I'm considering removing the Google Checkout option. I'm looking for feedback, as a buyer, which of the two ways do you prefer to buy online? Personally, as a consumer I perfer Paypal, I've been verified with them since 1999 and feel most people on the Internet know who they are and how they work, but I don't want to eliminate Google Checkout if people will actually use it. Fees are the same, I just want the payment process to be as simple and clutter free as possible for the end user.
