I’ve used e-Junkie a while now and I’m very pleased with it. The only thing I’m missing is a feature that let’s you view a list of customers that have purchased a product. As a software developer for 2D animation I think e-Junkie is an excellent service that works seamless with PayPal.

I’ve used e-junkie for six months to sell both a digital download (eBook) and tangible goods (trophies). I’ve stayed with them because of ease of use, excellence in delivering downloadable products, and low price. There are some cons, though, especially around the area of thank you emails.

> Are you also sending “residence_country” with the POST?

In the case of Google Checkout, Authorize.Net etc., Yes

For PayPal, only if they send it.

> it wasn’t sent unless the item had shipping on it.

It’s actually not “asked” from the buyer if shipping is not enabled, but if PayPal gives them an option to enter it anyway, we’ll pass it to you with other values.

Thanks for the update Robin. For the country code I was looking for address_country which is the long name that IPN uses. I’ll have to modify my script. Are you also sending “residence_country” with the POST? Looking at the help page only address_country_code is listed.

It’s good to hear about the address being sent now too. I noticed that it wasn’t being sent when I was testing my script back when I first signed up. I had asked about it and had been told that it wasn’t sent unless the item had shipping on it. I was still operating on that info.

Thanks for the mention Brad! About con #4, we do send the “residence_country” which can be used for localization. If user enters the address, we send the complete address.

We are still figuring out a secure way to handle #2.

I’ve been using E-Junkie for my ebook sales since September and am very happy with it. When I’ve had questions the response has been fast and helpful.

It’s simple and quick to set up, and the best part is that there are no transaction fees. It’s a simple monthly payment for the service and I don’t have to host the downloadable binaries.

I have been using a similar product that is totally customizable called Foxy Cart. http://www.foxycart.com, you can see it in use at http://www.stemiltcreekwinery.com, it is completely seemless.
