Shop Safely With PayPal

For an added level of security, we also accept PayPal, the industry-leading online payment service. PayPal, a unit of Ebay, Inc., is accepted at thousands of online merchants worldwide, plus nearly all auction sellers on Ebay.

PayPal offers important advantages over direct online credit card payments:

• In addition to Visa and Mastercard, you can pay with your bank account or Discover or American Express card.
• You don't have to give your credit card information or billing address to the merchant, only to PayPal. Your order will simply show as "paid" to the merchant, and the merchant will see only your shipping address.
• Verified PayPal merchants, such as TheREALSouthwest.com, have had their addresses and bank account information verified by PayPal, proving they are "real" operations.
• PayPal maintains the largest Internet security system in the world. Every transaction is automatically reviewed by industry-leading, proprietary fraud prevention techniques that prevent fraudulent activity.
• PayPal's 2,000 paid security specialists include former law enforcement officials who work with agencies around the world to protect you from fraud and identity theft. These experts work with authorities to shut down fraudulent web sites, and they will contact you immediately if the PayPal security systems suspect fraud in your account.
• PayPal sends an email confirmation for every account transaction or change to an account. If you receive confirmation of a transaction you don’t recognize, PayPal's 24/7 security team will sort out the situation. And, if you think an unauthorized payment has been sent from your account, you can file an unauthorized activity claim.
• PayPal's Dispute Resolution Specialists will assist you if merchandise you ordered does not arrive.
• PayPal's Buyer Protection service gives you free protection up to $2,000 for transactions on Ebay.
• Since PayPal stores your credit card and address data, you don't have to re-enter it at every merchant you shop with.
• PayPal is the only payment method accepted by many sellers on Ebay and other auction sites.
• You can send money to anyone who has an email address and PayPal account.
