Using Paypal's "gift" option is one of the least secure and most dangerous ways to pay for an item.



Paypal will NOT help you if someone tries to rip you off, yet you've decided to GIVE them the money as a gift.


Selecting "gift" to pay for an item may save a fee, but it's a violation of Paypal's terms of service and is by far one of the leading sources of fraud we've encountered.


•For your protection, our team will NOT approve listings that encourage "gift payments."


•Sellers are not allowed to charge more to cover the Paypal fees associated with the normal item payment method.


•If someone tries to encourage you to pay by gift, don't risk being ripped off. You are sacrificing your right to file a dispute with Paypal.
