This from large stores as well as private collectors and I had absolutely no recourse, different country so the banks / authorities didn't want to know.

Yes there are fees, but Visa, Mastercard even eftpos all have fees as well. At a 20% mark up on items, isn't a 4% fee still better than not having the sale?
While I agree that the PayPal protection is awesome (I have used it before with a different retailer that posts on rc tech) a credit card also allows you the protection of disputing charges. We are also lucky enough to have this forum so people can ask questions and order from a good seller like stormer.
