I am also frankly disappointed that Google does not have someone
dedicated to these Google Checkout forums to help customers. It is
absurd. A person to talk to is good, but I can't understand if they
don't (because of volume). But at least someone who responds to some
of the questions on these forums would help!

I am seriously looking at other options now. Amazon Payments looks
like a good fit.

In fact, as soon as I am done with this mini site update, I am going
to start looking at using Amazon Payments.

I've been using Google Checkout since they started offering it but now
this is good time to call it quits, since there are other options.
