Even if you go through PayPal, they sell your information then you start to miss small amounts of less than reaccuring charge every month, and you can't stop it unless you close out your accounts and start over..

Go ahead!
Ask me how I know!!


Actually I don't have that problem. They don't have my Bank Account, and I don't do the delay payments. Many years of PayPal. Got it before they were doing the Bank thing.

While I have not used Wish.com for about 2 years now, I had quite good luck with them, solely using PayPal (a must), for quite a variety of items, fishing and otherwise.
Fishing-wise purchases------
I have 2 spinning reels, both work quite fine, 3 fly reels in #2,#3,#4 sizes, actually quite good including drag (and one #5 that I bought solely for the fact that it is painted to imitate a Rainbow trout... "just awful purty" and only $22+ shpg. !), though all have only been used a couple of times so far(came with super-cheap WF line I chose to not use), 4 telescopic rods (1@8', 2@10'+ & 1@12'+...and all 4 are quite good, imo, properly flexing and staying tight and aligned, having decent reel seats, grips, eyelets, etc......and the most expensive one was $18 incl.shipping !)
Many, many lures, esoteric hooks, rod hook keepers (be sure to replace the included O-rings with good ones....in stores about 2/$4.... from Wish....3 DOZEN for $1.99/doz., $2 for shipping all), pre-tied drop-shot surf rigs for pennies each, shrimp soft baits for pennies each, flies for pennies each (a LOT of flies in many tackle shops including the big ones, get their flies from the far East market, as well).
Probably the 2 lure purchases that were no-brainers, were the multiple sizes and colors of the "penis lures" (!...great gag gifts & most for less than a dollar) and.....hold on to your level-wind, all you bassaholics..... Whopper Poppers (compared them to my buddy's $14 ones.... same), 3 in one set...$5.99/set, $2 shipping, 8 in the other set, 2 of each of 4 patterns, $14.99/set w/box, $5 shipping......$28 for 11 WP lures !

Have no idea what conditions are now, especially seeing all the container ships anchored and waiting, so the arrival time could be quite sketchy, these days, I suppose. However, I only had one shipment problem out of dozens, and PayPal corrected it fine.

One of my favorite purchases from Wish.com that was not fishing related, was a T-shirt with the quip......
.."Don't flatter yourself, the only reason I look up to you is because I am short"..........
....kind of a perfect sentiment for both my stature and my demeanor, I'd say.... hehehe.
