Ultimately, we will move away from PayPal completely. For now, we’ve moved MOSTLY away. You shopping cart will now be housed right on our site until you decide you’re ready to proceed to payment. Payments will still be handled through PayPal (as always, you don’t need a PayPal account to pay – just a credit card.) Basically, our cart will handle all your items and PayPal just handles the final total and your payment information. It’s not a complete escape from PayPal, but it’s very close and we think it will eliminate many of the PayPal related headaches some of you have experienced in the past.
The post below will offer your some helpful tips and screenshots to get your more acquainted with the new cart and checkout process.
As soon you add something to your cart, you will be taken to this new page.

It is important to review your order on this page before going to PayPal as PayPal will not display your cart items. It simply handles your payment. If as you review you order you notice something you’d like to change, simple click the back button on your browser or click on “View Cart” near the top of your screen to go back and edit your cart contents.

the new changes look good, but you seriously need someone to proofread your pages, not just spell-check. There are numerous instances that say “you” instead of “your” as an example – it makes the site look very unprofessional. btw, I love B3 and wish you all the best.
