I was told there were multiple other ways to pay however there are only 2 options upon checkout.
There are multiple payment options, but they are not the same in every country. And, 2 payment options still count as "multiple" to me...
I can smell the fishy-ness, I today bought the new C510 Cessna with the same card I tried countless times to buy GSX (which failed every time, so did my PayPal) anyways, the C510 purchase went without a hiccup.
There's obviously no fishy-ness involved, which is of course absurd, considering how very well known Digital River is. Sometimes payments get blocked on a specific combination of seller and payment method for no clear reason.
The silliest one was PayPal blocking purchases of our KIAH scenery because it contained "sensitive material", which was just a stupid text recognition pattern because the airport is called "George Bush International", which of course is the real airport name, but some idiotic algorithm PayPal has in place detected "George Bush" as being something of a political and thus "sensitive" matter. We tried to investigate that for a long time, PayPal never admitted they algorithm is lame, yet they DID suggest we should have changed the product name, that's why there are no references to George Bush anywhere in the product name or description.
That was just an EXAMPLE about what silly things can happen when payment companies are involved, without any need to add all that drama about scamming of fishing...
So here's to hoping GSX will come to either the MSFS MP or simMarket. Wish there would be a comment on weather that'll happen or not.
We'll likely give the product to other retailers after we'll release the version that will read airport data from the new SU10 Navdata API, so it will work with any airport, including the encrypted ones from the Marketplace.
