They do actually. Apparently they prefer it. Here's what their FAQ says:
Q : How do I pay using the PayPal service?
A : Go to the PayPal site at
www.paypal.com and sign up with them. Once you are a confirmed member, you can use our e-mail address as the Payee name. There is no need to use the Shop, other than to read the price of the model(s) you are buying. When you fill in the PayPal on-screen form, you can enter in the 'comments' section which model or models you want. Please make sure the price is correct and the payment is in US Dollars.

Wow...now that I have read the paypal method of payment with a clear head, I'm having quite alot of doubts...
...sounds really shady to me "send us the money first, and we'll give you the thing eventually"

If Alphasim did that then there's no way they would have been trading for the past god knows how many years. Alphasim IMO area trusted and well known developer in the FS world...

Yeah, Alphasim is a trusted company in the FS world. They also have some of the best customer support Ive seen.
Granted their VCs are not exactly perfection but their exterior models are normally quite good, and for the price, they are decent. I have several of their models and I like their products

Yep. I thinks its nice to be able to go to Alphasim, and for the price of some payware addons you can buy 3-6 aircraft from them. I haven't been disappointed with any products I've bought from them, and their Westland Seaking is superb (coming from someone who can't stand helicopters).
Just can't wait for the 3rd Lightning package, the T-birds...
