I know it's cliché to call anonymous commenters shills, but that sentence has major shill energy. Who says "your favourite online store", honestly.
I also know I shouldn't "feed the trolls", but your comment did amuse me.
Me? Shilling for Visa/Mastercard? Oh, boy. I was merely asking questions, so I can understand "how can I move away from visa/mc, as soon as possible".
It's ~interesting~ cute that this is what you're getting hung up on.
Sorry, I said "favorite online store", mate ;)
Cheers
I believe this is known as "JAQing off"
You don't have a favorite store you choose to shop if there are multiple options?
Would "Your shop of choice" make it any better?
I can't tell if you're missing the point deliberately for humorous effect...
