If your paypal is hooked into a bank account, just make sure the account has money and then paypal will take it right from there. If it is hooked to a credit card, paypal will charge the card. OR, you can put money into the paypal account first. I never do. I have a checking account that is ONLY for paypal, I keep a small balance in there, $50 or so, then if I buy something the money is instantly available for paypal. If I know I'm going to make a larger purchase, I'll transfer money into that account first. I don't keep a balance in paypal itself, but then I don't sell. I want my money in my bank accounts, earning ME interest. ^___^ Just don't use the paypal credit option. A friend had LOTS of problems with them over it.

You DID link your bank account to your PayPal account right? ^^

If you decide to put money in your account though, you should know that you can't just retrieve any amount back from there. I think the minimum is $10 or €10.

yes i did link it =D .... and yeah i think it'd be better to let paypal just take from my account rather than adding money

If you eventually sell something the money will usually stay in your Pay Pal unless you hook up to have it go to your bank account.

And Pay Pal will do conversions to Yen and Euros but before you do check the current exchange rate so you have a ball park figure.
