i was woundering do u need a paypal account to buy things off ebay or can u just use a credit card:)

Practically no one on eBay will process credit cards directly, bar a few merchants maybe. Every auction will list what payment methods are accepted anyway.

Open a PayPal account, it's free.

Then use your credit card to pay via PayPal

That way your not giving your credit card details to the seller.

Yes it's much safer with paypal and it's easier if you're going to be making multiple transactions as you only have to enter your password each time instead of entering your CC details on random sites.

if you are selling on ebay you have to have a paypal account.but i dont think u need one to buy but its just easier as every seller has to accept paypal.the seller will list other payments they accept also

ye cool do u know if the 3v cards work to put money on paypal to buy things

3V can be used with Paypal, but you can't transfer the money into Paypal from it, so you'll have to use all the 3V credit on purchases before it expires. You can also do a bank transfer, which can take a week for the money to come through.
