- Karunamon 11y agoIf you're on eBay, you don't have any choice in the matter, it's PayPal or nothing. Charging back a PayPal transaction also basically ensures you'll get banned from the service (and by extension: eBay)
- chrisan 11y agoYou can pay with your credit card via PayPal. It defaults to credits, then your bank, but you can elect to pay with CC just fine
- anamexis 11y agoIt's still through your PayPal account though. It's not credit card -> merchant, but rather credit card -> your PayPal account -> merchant's PayPal account

- level3 11y agoIs this an eBay thing? In general, PayPal doesn't require buyers to have an account to pay by credit card. Edit: What I mean to say is that AFAIK, paying by CC through PayPal is separate from your PayPal balance.
- aninhumer 11y agoYes, that's how most people use PayPal I'd imagine, certainly I never keep any money there. The point being made is that your CC transaction is still with PayPal, so if you chargeback they might ban you from the service.
- dmoy 11y agoWell, that's kinda fine by me. If I'm out $1000 from a fraudulent lens purchase on eBay, and they/Paypal won't refund, then I'm fine not doing business with them anymore and recovering my $1k from credit charge back.
