    Hi,

    Lately my Paypal Account has been limited and after 3-4 weeks which is till now I called them and I repeatedly asked them for my money back and then I got a FULL bank transfer. I told them I was only 16 of age nearly reaching 17. I am so happy...

    Two question:
    1. Can you sell items on ebay without a Paypal?
    2. Can you buy a item of ebay without paypal aswell? (Only credit card)

    1. Yes, just find an alternative to accept payment from such as AlertPay.
    2. Yes, just ask the seller if he/she will accept alternative forms of payment before you bid.

    You are the lucky one, out of the most. Glad to hear that you got your bucks back.

    Q.1: Yes, paypal is not the only thing to buy online, you can use moneybookrs for selling on ebay.

    and u can buy.. using the credit card. even the paypal gives the feasibility to use their service, for non account holders.

    So, having not a pp is not surely a life and death prob.

    Best of luck.

    Thanks,

    To make it clearer, I dont want to use any of the services such as Paypal, MoneyBookers and the rest. I just want no accounts at any of the sites. I just want to pay buy Credit card.

    I will only use credit card... Also how does the money get into my bank account if I sell something on ebay? NOTE** No other services such as paypal, moneybookers and so on...

    Help....

    thanks for the comments.

    The AIM is to sell or buy a item of ebay without using paypal, moneybookers and the whole rest of it.

    what do u think, is it possible? Ebay is mother of Paypal. Their own service is PP, why do they allow anyone else to do business. and how can you get paid into your bank. only a choice i think a check. its almost merely possible to do business online.

    select one out of the rotten.

    that is the thing I've mentioned in the first post. PP has itself option for purchasing with credit card. But you need an account to pay some one with his CC, Don"t you?

    It simply's says Log In or Credit Card... In common sense that looks like if you dont have a PP account you can use Credit card... I'm not sure...

    Anyone else can come in and confirm this?

    That means no Paypal needed? What about if I'm selling an item on ebay? (I dont want Paypal or other services, just money going to my bank)...

    PayPal is required unless your a master seller (meaning you've sold over 1,000 items to eBay's satisfaction).

    Like SkyIsLimit and Hostimizer both have said, you can make a payment on an item using a Credit Card only, no PayPal account needed to buy items.

    However if you are trying to sell and stay away from any of eBay's payment processors like PayPal, Moneybookers, Paymate and ProPay, then your almost out of luck because the last three types are are Escrow, which is usually big money items, Cash On Pickup, and on certain categories (Motors, Capital and Business Equipment, Real Estate, and Adult.) bank wire, check and money orders are accepted. I doubt that you do since your 16, but if you already accept Credit Card and Debit payment via the internet then there is something called PayFlow that eBay offers, and it would work with your current internet payment processor.

    You can confirm with: http://pages.ebay.com/help/pay/checkout-preferences.html

    I guess your lucky enough or probably they just transfer back the money because they have not seen any abnormal transactions in your paypal or perhaps they just need your information ..But your lucky to get your money back ...Your few person who got money back after getting limited

    I'm wondering if the shopping cart's will take customers credit cards. Anyone confirm?

    Less chance you will get your money back. Total phone calls made by me to get the money back is 8 calls. The asian dude said no. This last dude said yes and I got my money back. I have one problem... The transaction said on my paypal to bank ''Completed''. When I goto my bank and check it isnt updated. Maybe give it 1 more day? Its been 2 days or lesser.
