Hello, I'm trying to buy 18 BitCoins through Paypal. I understand the risks involved but honestly I have no other efficient method.

I'm willing to go first if you are reputable. If you're not willing to go first then please have a verified Middleman before initiating the trade.

My Paypal is verified.

If your paypal is verified, you have to have a bank account; correct?  Why can't you do a bank transfer?

Because I have money in Paypal which is intended for BitCoins. I avoid credit cards for typical reasons and have a debt card attached which means I have to wait a minimum week to transfer my funds while Paypal is instant.

I'm buying these BitCoins to immediately spend them afterwards. Figured using Paypal would be quicker.

Now here's my question: Are you actually interested in selling BTC through Paypal or completely intended on calling me out?

Good luck finding some willing to accept your Paypal without a solid reputation.  Paypal is openly hostile to Bitcoin, and will freeze accounts for 6 months if they find out you are dealing with them, not to mention the chargeback risk.

While no idea is perfect, some ideas are useful.
