I have never bought anything from the online store before, but I heard theirs some type of paypal card or something that you can get for like $30 and it'll have $30 on their. Sold at bestbuy or other stores and you just put the card # in and be able to buy it through that. I know theirs something like that for WoW to pay for the monthly subsciptions, was wondering if they have something like that that I could use in this situation to buy the name change, storage, etc?

Didn't know payPal had somethng liek this o_O WoW does have a card that let's you pay for a 2 month subscription but it can only be used for that. I'd definately pick up a PayPal card if store's sold them; would beat having to open a bank account.

Are you thinking of Visa gift cards? Thats what I use.

Well I'm not really sure if it actually is paypal or not. I guess it would be something like Ultimate Game Card, where it has like a month or two of money for a subscription of the game. They make them for specific games that are p2p, but gw isn't so their not going to have one for it. But any other type of card that you could just pick up at bestbuy, walmart, or gamestop. You would use it as a credit card but it isn't really one. And you don't need to have a bank account. Something like that?

Edit- Did some research, I guess this would be it.

Say's the original guild wars, but would it be possible to use it in the In-game store? Say's they sell them at 7 eleven, not sure if they still do though :s.

The game card listed is just a product key for prophecies. What you're thinking of is a prepaid visa debit card, available at most chain stores. It'll have the VISA logo on it, and can be used anywhere you can use a visa card. They come in 20, 50 and 100 dollar cards, and can be reloaded at any time. I've got one I've used for years to make online purchases, including from the in-game store. Once you get it and register it to your name and address, you're good to go shopping.
