Something wrong with PayPal ? Guess not...

Tried to checkout several times, but PayPal keeps going to a security challenge checkbox, over and over and over...

    After entering the first PayPal screen info to sign in, I got an "I am not a Robot" page with the little pictures, went though 5 or 6 iterations, and it just kept going to another one. Signed out of Daz, closed thee window, came back in, same thing. Just tried to checkout again, several hours later, and no problems at all. Per usual checkout process.

    Thanks, Richard, In the cart? A couple of Ensary pose sets, a motorcycle, and a couple of Zed pose sets from the FRIDAY-CHRISTMAS sale.

    Thanks, myotherworld.

    Sometimes PayPal will take exception to a product name - anything related to Cuba, for example, seems likely to make it through a wobbly. Older products would probably be safe, though I am sure their algorithms do get updated from time to time so it would be possible for a formerly safe product to start triggering a block. Still, trouble with the captcha doesn't sound the same.

    There seem to be some um, 'new and improved' captcha ... and yes, some are so bad as they just keep cycling over and over and over. And yes, from that site I just closed the browser and tried again later, no problems. Some of the captchas now have a 'thing' where you click the box, and wait, click it again, wait, click it again ... until the target item no longer appears in said box, repeat for every box in the chart. Sigh. And then some pages work with a simple checkmark to say that one is not a robot. Seems to me that robots can type just fine so not sure how that works save that it means one is not a computer software program just downloading everything on the entire Net.

    That might be the case if everyone bought the same products, which I don't think they/we did. If suddenly several people, including me, have problems with payment, then there must be another reason. Maybe it is related to the new store design, I don't know.

    I got a message from paypal this morning saying they were having some kind of problems. They told me to try again later. I will do that now and hope for the best....

    EDIT: It works now!
