People wont exchange BTC for payment via Paypal, (and to be honest I woudnt either unless with a trusted party )  as Paypal can be reversed where as the BTC transaction can not.

Im new to this as well, and have asked if there is anywhere people can recommend off this forum that will accept payment via Paypal, but am yet to get a response, and I only want to spend $8 lol so you and your £20 have no chance

I can pay with some other method if requested, but paypal is what I mostly use.

I don't understand why I am getting negative feedback just for stating that paypal was my preferred method :/

I can see why he did it, and I also suspect if he can reverse it he will when he comes back on, there is so much begging and scamming nonsense on here, I think most people look at every post as "Scam" first  then "Legitimate" second, and having read some of the tripe on here I can see why.

After all BTC is essentially disposable money and as such everyone wants it for nothing, and some don't mind being dishonest and/or stealing it.

But as I say he may view it a little different now you have followed it up.

I'm not too knowledgeable about it I just needed some and I can't find them anywhere. I was using a website called VirWoX but they charge crazy commission rates, so I have to pay much more than the value I am looking for.
