Title: Question about buying with Paypal... Post by: Zoznoz on July 03, 2013, 01:24:29 AM Hey guys, sorry if this seems like a stupid question but usually I don't have cash in my Paypal account, however can I pay using a credit card that is linked to a Paypal account? That is a personal seller like on here.

Paying from a CC linked to Paypal leaves the seller open to a chargeback and also creates an unnecessary fee. He can still pay the fees. And you can ALWAYS chargeback with paypal, does not matter if you pay from a CC or your balance. So, it does not really matter, but you will have some fees (around 3 % if I remember correctly).
