    Ok I would like to sell something, and it needed paypal so the buyers can send the money.

    But what if I havent got paypal and I am willing to sell something. What can i do?

    Is it alright to signup for one? but its got to be 18 of age, and I'm not 18!

    Some people use paypal without 18 ;) But if they catch you, you can get a frozen account.

    Why not accept WU instead?

    Western Union is like a cheque (you can accept cheque too). WU is easier because all you have to do is go to money mart (or a similar place) to cash it out. There are fees for the senders though.

    How would that work?
    What do you mean moneymart?
    So the buyers will send it through mail?

    Money Mart is a place where you go... give them the WU and exchange it for cash. I'm not sure if they have it at your city though. There are similar places too, you have to check WU's site for a dealer.

    They don't have to send it through mail, they can just give you a code! And you can bring that code to the dealers.

    Open ur own account, get the money..Then ask for your parents credit card, and then on paypal ask to get a check..Your card wont get charged, its only to verify your address.

    Well there is nothing you can do. Those are the options. Either tell your parents to open you a paypal account or learn how to use WU.

    Wiring is another option! But just be careful ;) you're dealing with your personal bank information here.
