i just tried to buy something on ebay (an out of print coil cd) and i feel like i made a big mistake... i often buy things through online stores but i've never seen such a fucking mess!
the item was on "buy it now", i ordered it, chose paypal (i probably shouldn't have) and i just have to pay the seller now — but i just don't get how i'm supposed to do it. when i want to pay, the site (paypal) tells me to login, then enter my credit card information, which i do, but i can't get past the page where it tells me to enter my credit card information... when i fill it in and click on "continue", i get an error message telling me that that credit card is already entered on my paypal account and i'm still on the same page...
i have no idea of what's going on there, maybe the site is having problems, or i have a problem, but i'm starting to feel really bad about this.
help, please...? : (

Did you read all the pages carefully for each step? I remember when I first signed up to Paypal I had to wait to see a "test" transaction on my bank statement and enter it's reference (thus, I assume, proving I am me to Paypal's satisfaction).

register onto paypal first (seperately) > just go straight to paypal.com and not through ebay

i am registered on paypal, yes...
i had to choose between phone, sms or credit card for verification when i registered and i chose credit card so maybe it would be what xceque said, but i can't find a place to enter a reference...
i tried everything, it's been several hours since i'm on this now.

okay, it seems to be what xceque said. i hope that i get that code pretty soon and that i don't have any problems with the seller for being late... if it is where's the problem...
thanks

check your online bank statement if you can do that. that way you won't have to wait until your next printed statement in the mail
