    Well, I know you have zero protection if you select 'gift' option. But I think there's some protection if it's a payment for goods or services. Anyone?

    Skywarp, I'm amazed you've survived without a paypal this long, especially collecting TFs! I had to get my bro to order my first overseas tfs lol.

    @ SkyWarp91:
    I started to buy online about a year ago, when I started collecting Tfs. I paypal from direct debit from my personal account- there has been no hiccups- except from errors with NAB.

    I agree with VP: Once you start, you will find it hard to stop. Ebay+ buying online is just too delicious and convenient. Personally, once I turned to buying online- I turned to Takara- since most times, they aren't much more expensive than regular retail here but deliver in better deco/paint/sometimes even quality. The current Dollar makes this especially true.
    You will also find it cheaper to buy Hasbro versions online than retail here. Pre-orders/bulk buying is also great.

    Honestly, I dunno how you survived this long as a collector without buying online...

    Also- head over to RobotKingdom.com and grab that Henkei Prime you wanted!

    Paypal's Buyer Protection Policy

    Btw Skywarp91, how the hell have you been managing to purchase TFs online without using Paypal? Don't tell me it's just been by direct bank deposits?

    You've done well lasting this long without Paypal (and also lucky that nothing's gone wrong if you've just been doing bank deposits for payments).
