The reason you won't find many places to trade your PayPal for BTC is that Bitcoin trasnactions are non-repudiable ... the transaction cannot be either cancelled or reversed.
You might find a willing participant in the #Bitcoin-otc marketplace. Here's the current order book:
- http://bitcoin-otc.com/vieworderbook.php
- http://bitcoin-otc.com
- http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#bitcoin-otc-foyer (marketplace IRC Chat)
Additionally, you might find a party willing to trade in-person through one of the local exchanges, such as BTC Near Me, Bitcoin.local or Ubitex even:
- http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Category:Local
If you are in the U.S., the easiest method nowadays is to deposit cash at a bank, as is offered by
http://www.get-bitcoin.com (USD -> BTC exchange, 5% fee)
and
http://www.bitinstant.com (for sending USD funds to TradeHill and Mt. Gox, 5% fee plus the trading fee at the exchange)

Virwox allows paypal. You buy linden dollars, and then with those buy bitcoin. It's not the cheapest, but it works.
ok, you use linden as emulsifier here.
I wonder who deals with the chargebacks in such tx.
Virwox charges a 2% fee when using paypal - which i guess is the "punishment" for using it.
Ill try using that method... will probably cost me a lot more though.
If you're in Europe I can sell you bitcoins for a SEPA transfer. Send me a PM if you're interested.

doesnt seem to work for me... "operations is unavaliable" I only wish to purchase a few bitcoins to test my payment gateway with... is there some kind of test network I can use instead (similar to paypals sandbox)?
bitcoin has/runs a fully working testnet, separate namespace for addresses, separate block chain
and gavin is giving away 50 testnet bitcoins per request (google testnet bitcoin faucet)
you can even mine there with the -testnet switch if you're patient enough
or you can run your local testnet bitcoin on localhost (google bitcoin testnet in a box, a thread in this forum)
not sure if you find any exchange from paypal to bitcoin. they do not mix well (like water and fat)
are you running the bitcoin client in server mode?
append -server to bitcoin-qt.exe or just run bitcoind.exe (im assuming your using windows)

Is there any bitcoin currency exchanges that allow me to purchase bit coins with paypal as it is my preferred way of shopping online, I have looked for some exchanges however they only allow withdraws to paypal rather than deposits.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
