OriginalRen Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Has anyone ever shopped at J-List? Does anyone know if they (seeing that you pay in USD and they accept PayPal) accept PayPal Credit? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmore Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Payments Accepted I think so long as it links back to your PayPal account you should have the option to use it when you select PayPal as your payment method in checkout, since the J-List website takes you to PayPal for your payment. It's pretty much like using a credit card as a small loan - J-List gets paid right away and you owe PayPal, not J-List. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanahtlig Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 PayPal charges your credit card immediately for pre-orders. That's an important caveat. IMO, don't use PayPal for pre-orders, especially with companies like JAST that might put a game up for pre-order years before the actual release.

I get that, I'm just wondering if I have the option of taking it from my bank account or my PayPal Credit; getting charged right away doesn't bother me.

sanahtlig Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I think your PayPal account is automatically debited before pulling from your bank account? At least if you set it do so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least if you set it do so. I have PayPal Credit, and I normally have the option of selecting if I'd like to take the funds from my PayPal account if it has funds in it (if not, from my actual bank account linked to the account), or from my credit line with PayPal Credit. If neither option has available funds I can also just enter card's information. My scenario here is that I have PayPal Credit with money to buy an item, but no money on my PayPal account or in my bank. I basically don't want to get auto charged and get a massive overdraft because it decided to take from my bank account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanahtlig Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 If it were me, I guess I'd find a way to disconnect my banking account temporarily from PayPal to prevent the worst-case scenario. Maybe change the routing number to nonsense or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valmore Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I'd say see if you can change your PayPal settings so that it defers to PayPal Credit as your default payment method, if that's an option. Deleting accounts as intense avatar guy up there said might help as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
