Paypal and Transfers
I feel like an idiot asking this, but I was just reading a reply by a member on a random sales post and it got me thinking about it.
I see people saying that they need to "transfer money to Paypal" very often and that'll it'll take a few days. Yeah, it does, but if it's attached to a bank account or a credit card, why do they do that?
My paypal balance is almost always zero. I just send money and it takes it directly from my bank account. It takes Paypal a few days to deduct the funds from my bank, but then the person I'm sending money to gets it instantly without having to wait.
So I guess my question is, am I missing something or not realizing other payment methods exist?
The only think I can think of is that some user's parents control their Paypal account and give them an "allowance" on it, but that can't apply for too many people.
