OpenSRS is not and can not protect you from *ALL* charge back issues. If you
get a charge back at 30 days there is nothing OpenSRS can do to get your
money back, your just hosed. If you don't like the risks involved then don't
get into the internet business and don't become a domain reseller/RSP. It is
as simple as that. The whole issue of what happens if I get hosed on a
credit card isn't the problem of OpenSRS, that is your problem because you
decided to accept credit cards as a valid form of payment. Do you think
OpenSRS should cover your losses if you get counterfeit money? No, so why
should they cover your losses for credit card problems? Microsoft, Dell,
Compaq and others won't cover the losses of their resellers why should
OpenSRS?
