only few exchanges accept paypal, you can try virwox. but fees are high.
Or you can find trusted member here for paypal / BTC transaction here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0
reversible payment like paypal isn't good for bitcoin transaction

Title says it all


Forget about Virwox, insane fees, and forget about Paypal, you'll most likely get scammed.

If you want to exchange coins for BTC or for FIAT without needing an endless paperwork, your best and probably only beet is meeting with someone from LocalBitcoins IRL and do the transaction on there. All other methods need that you present credentials to the exchanges if you want to deal with fiat.

+1, skip paypal they are crooks, and go with LBC.  Or you can do ach transfer from your bank to coinbase.  Their fee is a high 1%, but if you are trading small amounts then it is not too bad.  If you have larger amounts like 1000's of dollars then a wire transfer to an exchange with low fees will be the way to go.

Bitcoin and paypal aren't the best of friends, future chargebacks make it one of the riskiest ways of exchanging (up to 180 days after a paypal transaction). I'd avoid at all costs.

Paypal is inherently 100% unsuitable to trade bitcoins.

Paypal is unsafe, can be reversed, and full of scammers, thieves and frauds. My advance would be to not use Paypal at all, especially not when dealing with Bitcoin.

Virwox is the most used and there are few more but the fees are insane high not worth it

No way you can really consider 1% high. Coinbase can easily charge way more for the services that they provide and people would still gladly pay.

None of them accept Paypal payments.

Your only choice in exchange sites is Virwox but I don't recommend it. Just find a guy from localbitcoins or post a thread in Currency Exchange section.

Forget about using PayPal, they're a joke. Fees are ridiculous & we (bitcoin) are trying to put them & organisations like Western Union out of business.

Use a trusted exchange or buy bitcoin from members here, use an escrow.

I think the best way to exchange with paypal is to find someone on this forum who is legit with good and not fake history with positive trusted feedback

You will not find too many PayPal exchangers. First of all, they all charge 15-20% more than the average price and they justify this by high risk and a lot of chargebacks.

If you really insist on buying bitcoins like this, than use localbitcoins, virwox or maybe the best is to try and to find a seller on this forum, go to currency exchange sub thread and make an ad. This will be complicated though, I repeat, people are afraid of Paypal.
