Paypal - Cyber Money

[KevH]

Wondered what any thoughts were on Paypal regarding record prices.

With cyber money in accounts,is their a tendency to over pay slightly to snag that elusive record.? Subsequently,are we likely to charge slightly more ,knowing its not "real" money.? Its not like handing cash over.

No axe to grind here,just meandering thoughts.

There probably is a small influence.

But this has probably been tempered by the fact that credit cards at reasonable rates are getting harder to come by.

Hello Kev, I know we could discuss in person but thought I'd contribute as I was only thinking about this today. I'm trying to build up my paypal by selling several smaller items, as you know I've tried this before and always fail as I end up buying more than I sell at any given time. But that said, I'm trying again. I was then thinking that I would be likely to see this as monopoly money and if successful in building up a larger credit account would be in danger of paying over the odds for some things. Without going back to cross-refernce I'm sure there's a buy it now Ray Pollard - This TIme on ebay for $3,500 (could be $3000 but the same point), over priced in my paypal, would I be tempted . . . . . . yes. Another reason why I need a breathalizer filter fitting to my pc. Whilst ever I don't have anything in my paypal account I'm always bargain hunting, I think an account in credit will turn me into a different, less considered, buyer.

Just thoughts.

Edited thought having re-read your question: Another take on this is that in my opinion prices in record boxes at nights and nighters tend to be, on average, higher than finishing ebay or sales on here prices. Imagine if some dealer offered an on-line wireless log in at a night/nighter to pay by virtual money .
