I use only bitcoins for online shopping
I use PayPal for online shopping. I use BTC for steam products and want to use them for other products but, unfortunately, BTC's era has only begun. I hope soon that more BTC payable sites and shops will be available to us. it would be great to see some faster way of paying money online.  BTC is much safer, faster and personally just better than PayPal. I can’t wait to see the new trend of BTC developing more in various shops. This would cause a major difference to online shopping.

The comparison is not fair as one is a money processor and other is currency itself.As a money processor it has to take care of both parties interest.People complain about chargeback but isn't it comes handy when you are on the receiving end? I mean if a seller sold you something online which is not according to your expectations,you can get your money back by raising a dispute.With bitcoin once you send it,you can never get it back

If you sell something the buyer can chargeback into 5 business days or going into the stores,at virtual paypal allows 90 days to make the chargeback soo im sure no one who sell anything would use it ,bitcoin its final if we type the wrong adress its gone ,soo make us be more careful with our money.

PayPal because many online stores accept PayPal.

but not amazon and ebayl also is not partenered with it anymore, so the two big business thing does not accept paypal anymore, but instead you can buy on amazon through purse io with bitcoin

so why i should choose paypal now? bitcoin is more accepted or accepted at a better place online
Amazon has never partnered nor accepted Paypal as a payment method. Ebay was part of Paypal and they still accept Paypal as of now. Purse.io is just a middle man and quite frankly, there are quite some scammers there based on what I've heard. Gift cards can be bought with stolen credit card remember?

It isn't a perfect solution till either of them directly accept Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is better than paypal for online shopping because it's fast and easy to use with secured transaction.

If we can stay away from paypal that would be much better for us, they can limit or calling freeze your funds and the game can begin and this process can take months to be solved in some cases, with bitcoin you are secured but here there are no chargebacks so must be careful when dealing, i prefer more bitcoin rather than paypal.

Because of the fact that bitcoin is still limited in online stores and I'm not able to use them in regular shops, I'd have to go for paypal for now.

A year ago I would say PayPal, but being more familiar with bitcoin, I would go for bitcoin anytime anywhere.

It is just so more convenient than PayPal.

Absolutely i will choose bitcoin for shopping.

No need to verification for register, fees is very small, and transaction is very fast.

Paypal can do this.

You mean paypal can't do that right?
the only things that make bitcoin better than paypal are we dont need to upload our identity and of course low cost even with the high amount of transaction
Yes. Paypal can't do that. Sorry little bit miss " 't ".

When you create new account, especially in process verification you will have to upload personal information. Which i don't like that.

But if using bitcoin, we don't need to verification, even for registration. Just download the wallet and you have account.

That's why i love bitcoin it's so super simple and no one can't froze my money, no limit and low cost, not like paypal they can limited my account anytime
and its really complicated to fix it

First of all if paypal limits your account is for a reason.

But this reason can be justified and unjustified! Trust me, I know some people that had their accounts limited and even frozen and this has killed their income earning over eBay, and they lived from selling stuff on eBay!

Whenever you have a single person that is deciding your destiny during a dispute, you never how will this end!
Thats why bitcoin is getting more and more costumers,with bitcoin sales will be final wont be any kind of chargeback or limit action into any ammount,you holding,bitcoin is the future besides low fees against paypal fees,and those chargeback system and the frozen accounts,besides the main fact of id and bank account to get verified.
With low fees, there's volatility and no chargeback system. For merchants, this can be good since they would benefit from both. For customers, it is much harder since you need to store Bitcoin within a wallet and you can only trade with trusted sites and with escrow.

What are your opinions on PayPal or bitcoin for online shopping?
Bitcoin is best, but u will always need PayPal for those online stores that don't accept bitcoin when they don't accept bitcoin just change some BTC into USD
I use BTC for steam products and want to use them for other products but unfortunately BTC's era has only begun. i hope soon that more BTC payable sites and shops will be available to us. it would be great to see some faster way of paying money online.  BTC is much more safer, faster and personally just better than PayPal. i can’t wait to see the new trend of BTC developing more in various shops.

how do you use Bitcoin with steam

There are some external websites (not steam) that offer steam products for bitcoins, http://dispenser.tf is one of them, basically you deposit your bitcoins there and you can buy steam games, dlcs even items from steam games

Yeah, those who wants to get rid of banking verifications and all that stuff will definitely choose bitcoins over paypal, and bitcoins transaction fees are very low as compared to paypal as paypal involves high level of hidden charges which they do not disclose at the initial stage.

Both of you are correct! The only problem I see is that people will have to get used to that with Bitcoin there is no right for an error. When you hit that send button, that's it. This will take a while to get used to and many errors by the users and lost funds I am afraid!

Yeah, many of us have admitted that we have sent btc to wrong addresses and that is the basic thing we need to learn to check and recheck before transferring btc as if it is sent to wrong address then those funds are never gonna come back and its a major problem for new btc users.
