Maybe my question is not necessary, but why don't you buy it at this forum in the Goods section? It may not be safe to trade directly, but you can make a deposit or trade through an intermediary. I bet there are many reputable members willing to help you  Wink

There is no point in that. If a reversible payment method is used, an escrow won't be of much help. Yes, it will help if both parties refuse to go first but even after that you still have the risk of the buyer doing a chargeback.

additionally the goods board is specific to actual "goods" both physical and digital. the correct board to post such things is the Currency exchange board that can be found here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0 there are already about 20 topics there that are dealing with Paypal among other payment methods.

Withdraw your paypal money to your bank and after go buy from ATM or if possible buy directly from your card attached to bank account if they permit it.

This. Let Paypal take some conversion fees if your currency is not in USD, but at least you have way more choices now.

If I'm a seller, I'd avoid Paypal offers like the plague due to chargeback opportunities.

So, when Paypal allowed to reverse transactions, it made the exchange of Virwox at risk, right? It seems that it is a reason for them to close

I doubt it. Virwox has been doing PayPal/BTC since 2013 If I'm not mistaken so the risk of chargeback has always been there.

The very high fees and the limits set on PP transactions is what helped them, so even if they had people doing chargebacks, they probably were still on profit.

You can try the site I am promoting in my signature. Direct link of Paypal USD to Bitcoin- https://www.bestchange.com/paypal-usd-to-bitcoin.html
By the way, bestchange is not the one who will exchange, they are sharing the best exchange available and you can use the best one. At this moment, I can only see one available option. For your info, the price there is a little higher than the actual market price.

but if you are still into p2p you can find some reputable member here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0 don't trade with untrusted members with no trade history and feedbacks.
Even though P2P trading, he will have difficulty finding bitcoin traders who accept Paypal in this forum or out there.

For a reason his account is still low which may not have a good level of trust.
If he still insists on finding a Bitcoin seller with Paypal payments, at least he is here to increase his account to become a Hero or Legendary account.

But if instead he wants to sell bitcoin to Paypal to people who have confidence in Paypal trading it can still be found in this forum.

Hello, it's always better if you can do some on forum dealings although most people here will not agree to accept paypal because of it's reversable nature. However, I am promoting BestChange, so, I can suggest you using BestChange for buying Bitcoin with Paypal. Make sure you have checked the feedback given on the available exchange suggested by BestChange. https://www.bestchange.com/paypal-usd-to-bitcoin.html
I support this OP but first try in your own risk and read their policies. Besides from our signature I also recommend these sites
https://localbitcoins.com/ and https://paxful.com.  I know you said this

It's all about the reversible option on PayPal, this is why it is always not that much safe, so exchanges avoid using it. Move your funds in PayPal to another credit card and use Coinmama,it's safe.
I can't ignore the suggestion of using peer to peer deals with paypal, somewhere in forums and local social groups. Use localcrypto and create new offers for Paypal exchange, it's also safe and without KYC. Better than Paxful and localbitcoin .

You can also ask on marketplace of this forum, but sadly people dont trust Paypal much, since it can reverse transaction. Or whatever is it called. The guy sends you Bitcoin and paypal transaction to him is cancelled and he lose his Bitcoins.

Okay not only Paypal, but I want to know where I can buy BITCOIN directly using Paypal or any debit/credit card. Thanks for mentioning best exchange but I'm looking for a different non-person-to-person transaction. Something similar to Coinbase

For credit/debit cards, you have multiple options: Coinmama, BitPanda, and CEX.io.

As for PayPal, then with Virwox shutting down, you really don't have any other alternatives but to use P2P trading.

No God or Kings, only BITCOIN.
You may choose to buy instead on Coinbase, the efficient and safest way AFAIK. There are many guides on the internet you may search for those if you think the guides below are not that efficient. I don't think Facebook is a reliable source for that unless that person/page is closely related to a trusted service that sells bitcoin.

Read these guides:

I know this topic might have been asked here countless of times but I am looking for a different answer other than the following information below:

- I'm not looking for a person who I can pay Paypal to exchange with Bitcoin
- I'm looking for a trusted instant web-service where I can go to and exchange my Paypal into BTC.

I hope I am asking the right question because I've been left and right trying to ask this question on places like Facebook groups and I'm somehow not getting where I intended to be.
