I was thinking of using PayPal Buyer Creditto purchase an item on Ebay where the seller accepts Paypal as a form of payment. I did not see any specific reference to "PayPal Buyer Credit" on the auction item page - but they do have the Paypal payment option. I emailed the seller asking if I can use Paypal Buyer Credit to pay for his auction, and he said no. (???) However, looking around on the Paypal site i found this page: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/cps/buyercredit/BCMKTFAQ-outside ...specifically this section: "What if promotional financing isn't offered on the eBay item I want to purchase? An eBay seller who offers PayPal Buyer Protection on an eBay listing is eligible to offer promotional financing. You may email the seller and ask if he or she would consider revising the item to add a promotional financing offer. Although this is completely at the seller's discretion, a promotional financing offer can be added at any time until a listing closes. If a seller chooses not to offer promotional financing, you may still use PayPal Buyer Credit to fund any PayPal purchase and make low monthly payments." So if I understand this correctly, as long as the seller offers Paypal as a payment option, I will be able to use Paypal Buyer Credit regardless?
