Quick PayPal Question

[184550]

Here's a link to the thread in question for context.

Here's a PM I received:

It's none of my business, but you told that guy in the marketplace that you don't have a PayPal account.

And I don't.

Sorry, I don't have a PayPal account. 😱

But to become a contributor/demi, you have to pay with PayPal. So... 😉

Here. 😉

Am I correct in thinking that I cannot pay a private seller the same way I contributed to MR?

Are private messages allowed to be posted on the forums? I don't see anything in the FAQ's or rules about it, but it just seems that they should be private.

From the Paypal link, it looks like the seller would have to have a Business or Premier account, and it's the seller that would decide whether to turn-on that ability or not.

So, I guess you could ask the seller if he/she had a Premier/Business account and would accept a transaction like that.

I didn't see anything relevant to how PMs are treated in the Rules/ FAQ's.

I am well aware that there may be an unspoken Gentleman's Agreement.
