+1 Virwox

It is the only way I know of for Paypal > BTC
I have used it but didn't like the rates. plus you have to factor in fluctuations between SLL / USD and SLL / BTC as well.
I always end up with an unusable amount of SLL and fiat currency on Virwox.
That being said its ok if you must use Paypal.

You say you want someone to sell you PPC .... Be careful of scams when trading with strangers outside of escrow.

I wouldn't use Virwox again. Just to test it, I sent Virwox $104 through PayPal. After all the exchanges were said and done, I had $80 in BTC in the end. That is a net 23% in fees. You are better off shopping around on localbitcoins.com, I managed to get $200 worth of bitcoins for 5% more than the current exchange price at localbitcoins.

According to these guys: http://gamblingbitcoins.blogspot.ro/2013/11/how-to-get-better-and-safer-btcusd.html virwox rates are better than bitstamp (however I did not check the correctness of the data)

3. would be buy PPC with BTC on BTC-E

thanks for the advice.

Please check the exchange rates in VirWox and calculate how much it'll cost you. If the rates are too high, then consider some other mode of payment and purchase from Localbitcoins.com.

Hmmm... the only way which I know is:

1. Buy Linden dollars with Paypal USD through VirWox

2. Buy BTCs for Linden dollars through VirWox

~~3. Transfer the BTCs to BTC-E and convert them to Paypal USD.~~
