Hi,

Buying a car from my friend and I was wondering if I could pay for it through Paypal with a credit card using the gift option?

Is it possible and would I incur huge fees from the credit card company?

Ta.

If you use a credit card, either you or he will have to pay fees. They're not huge though and it will tell you the value before you pay.

EDIT - it's a percentage though and now I see it's for a car, it could add up to a fair bit!

Aye, thought that might be the case, it's £1500.

Need to find out the percentage and work out if it's worth it!

So 4%. hmmm. Still might be worth it or at least worth some further bartering with my mate!
