I have not ever asked it to take money from a place it didn't have so I'm not sure about the bank overdrafting or anything...

But I'm pretty sure they have the secondary funding source for a reason! If it says it'll take it from the credit card, It definitaly should! I think in the end the transaction just might take a few days longer, is all. Cause it'll take a few days for it to realize it's not in your bank account, and THEN it would charge your card, I think...?
You might want to call and ask paypal anyway, though. XD

x___X i know, I was stuuupid and I didn't scroll down/see that my bank account was selected as primary before I hit send.

Yeah! That's what it says on the page, so it should do just that. I suppose I'm being paranoid. I've just heard too many overdraft horror stories. Paypal would probably get lawsuits if it was so easy to overdraft your accounts. I checked their help section and basically the only way to possibly overdraft (or the only way they mention) is through debit cards.

Yeah, I've done that before too...not looking at what is selected. It always just ended up taking the money from someplace I didn't want it to, but I'm lucky there was always funds!!

Haha, yeah, over drafting sucks but I know that they make sure to take from your secondary source if the primary doesn't have enough. XD
