You are misspelling TARĐIGRADE. That word is Serbian, not English. The Latin form of the language has the letters /d/ (upper "D" and lower "d") and /dz/ (upper "Đ" and lower "đ").

There is also a TARGET TRANSPORTATION LIMITED on the list. PayPal, in their infinite stupidity, would probably block transfers to the retailer Target.
