 I want to buy an item from a merchant that accepts paypal.  It wont approve the transaction because it doesn't like the "SHIP TO " address.  WHY CAN'T WE BUY SOMETHING AND HAVE IT SENT TO AN ADDRESS THAT IS NOT REGISTERED WITH PAY PAL??? This hang-up makes sure that the only things you buy are for yourself! What about gifts??  I want to send a gift to a different address NOT my own!! - very frustrated Please do not comment about Ebay policy. This is unrelated. Thankyou for help ... View more

I am trying to purchase a gift for someone through a different merchant ( not EBAY) and when I chose to change the "ship to " name and address , my transaction was denied! I want to send the gift direct and having it first sent to myself would be a pain! How can we use pay-pal as conveniently as credit cards if we have this issue? If we are confirmed to be the correct user of a pay-pal account then we should be able to ship to any name and address we want. There has to be a way to fix this.     Just to be clear , this is about a purchase from a merchant  that has nothing to do with EBAY.  I am familiar with Ebay policy and know it is different .  I want to send a gift to a person at their address . How can this be made possible?   ... View more
