Title: Bitcoin and Paypal
Post by: WillTat4Bitcoin on October 19, 2015, 03:07:26 PM
Selling bitcoin has become kinda hard. Due to reversible things like PayPal.

Are there any other payment options besides Paypal? For buying and selling bitcoin?

Also buying and selling any item in general?

There's lots of other options like Skrill, Perfectmoney etc. that pop up in the currency exchange section here. Trouble is not that many buyers use them. I certainly never have.

Ppl here do paypal and skrill trade in currency exchange board, which is based on the reputation. Reputable members are always easy to sell and buy btc through paypal. But for you, you can sell btc easiy for paypal, at least ppl can trust btc and send you paypal after receiving your btc.

Also look into Neteller as a payment processor.
The company allows to purchase bitcoin from what I understand.

What country are you from?
I think it's possible to buy bitcoins via bank transfer in most countries.

Look on localbitcoins or paxful, you can buy Bitcoin instantly using practically any payment method.

Nobody in the right mind would sell bitcoins for Paypal funds, except if you don't know the buyer personally. So for me, Paypal is not even an option to sell some coins for.

That being said, except PayPal, you can use every other payment method pretty much to buy some coins. It just depends in which country you live, what exchange are you using and what payment methods do they accept.

If you found things hard when buying and selling bitcoin thru merchants or exchanges then you can try meetup or trading between person. It usually done here in my country thru social medias like Facebook. There are some FB groups here composed of persons that usually do that way of buying and selling btc's. Just do a precautions in these type of transactions like any transactions does.

I really don't get why people have such a hard on for Paypal anyway. Surely most users have it linked to a bank account or card and can move it in and out with ease. As soon as you abandon the idea of using Paypal with BTC and stick to your regular banking options you wipe out most of the risks and ludicrous expense.

One of most popular BTC payment option is to/from PerfectMoney, there a lot of BTC exchanges, which offer this.  ;) Other payment options can be not so popular  ;D

Nearly all of the ppl knows it. But paypal is still the most popular accepted payment method. Ppl has to find ways to load their paypal. Hopefully bitcoin will become the standard payment for all of the merchants. Then paypal will have no place to live.  :)

But not all people are using bitcoin. We can say at least that there are many people in the world now using bitcoin but don't visit this forum regularly then you will noticed bitcoin are still not that popular. I like to see bitcoin too as the standard payment of all merchants but for merchants to able to implement they must see if many people like that idea or should I say majority of people demanding them to them do bitcoi  as their payment method. Anyway time will tell and yes I believe soon that bitcoin will accepted as standard payment in all merchants around  the globe.

PayPal does not protect sellers who pay for electronic goods (game codes or electronic currency) the buyer can get their money back. Be careful and trade only via trusted sellers. Good luck

I have sold ALOT of bitcoin via paypal over the years.

Recently, I've had alot of PM's from high ranking memebers like Hero etc, wanting to buy via paypal, which is fine, but wouldn't escrow. All they keep saying is "I'm a hero member, you don't have trust" It's funny beecause i have more trust than they did,lol. Maybe they were bought accounts?
