I would rather just use my credit card than use paypal (which bills to my credit card anyway).

Paypal also periodically bugs me that I'm "approaching my spending limit", and I should "get verified" -to do this, they want information about my bank account, something that I will never allow.

I'm too young to have a credit card however i use my moms through her paypal account, I would rather pay for things (like i was considering getting an extra character slot) with paypal as I feal its more secure than giving out the card number.

"Yes. I DO NOT have a credit card, I DO currently use PayPal and I WOULD use it for GW purchases."

My first question on guru when the online store was released was if it would ever support paypall. Still waiting for that day.

I use paypal for ebay, but never for anything else.

With ebay, I'm buying products from people I don't know. I am much more comfortable using PayPal because I know they won't see nor abuse my credit card number.

With the exception of ebay, I just want a quick and simple payment process. Granted, the paypal option is probably easy, I also don't want to be bothered to have to lookup my account, login to it and then deal with the payment. I prefer logging into a secure website and just typing everything in.

So PayPal option or not, I will continue to use the standard credit card option, unless I'm nervous about your company (as I am with sellers on ebay).

"No, I would not use PayPal. (Please explain)."

PayPal is not available in my country (Serbia).

Paypal? So gold farming bots can use the money they got from gold to buy more accounts easily? WTF!

No, I would not use Paypal. Why? Because my purchases are being tracked by another person, and I would much rather have them say, "Oh, he bought something from PlayNC (or any other place) directly. Okay," than "He put money into a Paypal account? Omg! What is he using a Paypal account for?!" And then I would have to awkwardly explain that I am not buying porn, drugs, or illegal artifacts, and that I'm just buying (whatever) from PlayNC (or wherever). And then I'd still be under suspicion. Stupid paranoid persons. T_T

Please, release some kind of small pack you can buy in stores that include the most important online shop stuff. I don't have a credit card, I don't have pay pal, and I really want this stuff. And no, I'm not a kid, I'm 20. I just don't have a credit card is all.

Personally I think you're screwing alot of ppl over with this Mission Pack promotion, I know you're just trying to make money and I'm ok with that but I just CANNOT get it, despite having money and the will to pay full price for this!!

I would rather use my credit card. I don't trust PayPal with my cc information. No good reason as I have never researched it, just non-specific Internet fraud/hacking fears.

Those internet fraud/hacking fears dont have anything to do with paypal, simpel fact is that if you dont protect and secure your computer, chances are that your cc info might be stolen or whatever, paypal is pretty safe, recently bought Garrys mod for 3 seperate accounts and it all worked out pretty good.

There have been lots of cases where peoples CC info has been hijacked, and that is all down to ignorance at computer security, and having keyloggers, spyware on their pc's.

If anet brings paypal tomorrow, i would definetly deposit some cash on my account and buy stuff just to get the mission pack.

Psh! Where ever did I say that I didn't want them to replace it? I just said I wouldn't use it. The poll does say to explain why you wouldn't use it, and I explained just that. :P

Nope.
PlayNC is rubbish and I prefer to purchase my games retail style and receive discounts AND two free T-Shirts.

Paypal?

Lawlz no.
Debit Card (Maestro) FTW.

The less things I have connected to my one Paypal account the better. If anyone got into it and fiddled it.... anything I had to use it to pay for would be effectively nerfed along with it.
