Thanks for the advice but I'm still confused. How or why do I need to "fund" my PayPal account when I have a debit card on file? I always transfer money from my PayPal balance to my bank account quickly so I usually don't have a balance available at PayPal, yet I've been able to use my account. I thought if I had a debit card on hand it was perfect - they could remove money from my account when they needed to in order to cover my purchases, especially when I was trying to make a purchase at the time when this happened. Obviously, if I was trying to buy something, I was giving my authorization for the action. What business is it of PayPal's if I want to use my debit card? How does it relate to the eBay transaction? If I had no money in my bank account, I would totally understand. But there's plenty of money there, which is separate from eBay. Thanks, also, for the advice re: vitamins and medicines. To ease your mind - the medicines are for my husband and his insurance company requires us to purchase his prescribed medicines online so we're not taking a risk - they're medicines he's used for years and I'm well aware of what I'm purchasing for him. And I purchase vitamins from a company I've used for years. True, maybe people don't need vitamins if they eat perfectly, but apparently many of us prefer to use them and feel better using them. Thanks for your answer and concern, though! And again - that has what to do with PayPal and eBay?
