Hey everyone..
im tryna buy a pair off scuderia6... anyways i was wondering is there a way to go through paypal so i can send the money without incurring fees and save me money? ive got no money on my actual paypal account but my credit card is hoooked up so is it possible to do just that (send money from my debit card through paypal without incurring fees at either end)?
cheers

Yep you can pay/send money without actually having any money on your Paypal account, it will be taken from your debit/credit card instead.

That edit slightly changes things. Sending money whether you have or don't have any funds on your paypal account doesn't incur any additional fees from you as far as i know but if the seller has a Paypal personal account instead of a business account, he/she can recieve a very limited number of payments in a year for free, can't remember how many it was.. 5? After that every time you recieve a payment, paypal takes a certain percentage from the transactions.
More detailed explanations you can find by reading Paypal's help section.

Send the payment as a gift or money owed in the reason for payment section.

so pure aslong as i write gift or money owed, there will be no fees involved? even with money conversions and all that crap?

No, there's a tab for the reason for the payment.
The second tab is personal, choose owed or gift for low or no fees.

We had this thread/QnA before...if I recall, it works between international transactions i.e. from Uk to USA and visa versa, and maybe even within you UK/Europe gents, but for us in North America, it don't work
I tested it w/ Minty way back and a no go it was....
