Default prius shop = hybrid utopia?

I just ordered a prius window shield from hybrid utopia but I was charged on my credit card by priuschat. I was just wondering if they were the same company? Anyone?

To my understanding, they're the same company with one difference; on Hybrid Utopia you can use major credit cards and not just Paypal.

Yep, it's the same company. HybridUtopia is a new accessory shop that is currently in "beta" and eventually will be the same system that drives the PriusChat Shop. I just have a few more tweaks to complete before I do the change-over.

Like it was said above, HybridUtopia can accept all major credit cards, PayPal, PayPal Express Checkout, and Google Checkout. And there are a few products up there that aren't on the PriusChat Shop yet.

Very cool Danny, you do a great job. BTW, which do you guys like better, the weathertech, or regular rain deflectors. I see the weathertech is cheaper but has a different look.

What do you mean by "regular" rain deflectors?

Yep, that's why I ended up ordering from them using my credit card. I didn't feel like waiting 5 days for the money transfer to paypal.
I hope being in "beta" won't affect prompt shipping?

I've ordered from Hybrid Utopia on three occasions and each time the purchase went well. Danny kept me informed on the progress of the orders and I felt very pleased.
