This may be of interest to members of this group. "Google is Evil, Worse than PayPal: Don't use Google Checkout for your business" describes an ebook seller's unfortunate experience with Google Checkout.
So, to sum up our experience with Google Checkout:
* they did not try to contact us to resolve any issue
* there's no way to find out why they closed our account, due to "security reasons"
* there was no notice (we found out by accident, when we tried to pay for something with Google Checkout)
* they kept over $200 of our money
* there is no appeal
* there is no one we can contact
* we cannot open a new account
* our money is gone, even though people have received their products
