[Coco] Private: Re: Pop*Star Pilot available for pre-purchase

[Dave Philipsen]

I'm not sure on this but it's possible that the buyer protection may not be in effect for F&F.  Anybody know for sure?  Also, a lot of people may not want to tie their bank accounts to PayPal and thus their transactions would normally be credit card-funded and subject to the fee.
