Son is venturing into selling stuff on the 'pal
Since I have never sold,only bought, and it was a while ago.
How does the buyer put money in his account?
 
That's how to add money to your account ,not to invoice a customer but I bet the one he needs is listed on the side
Thanks
 
Sorry I misread your question. A buyer sends money to your son's account simply by going to PayPal and choosing "send money", then he enteres the email address of the person (e.g., your son) who they are sending money to. The person sending the money does not need a PayPal account - they can choose to send via a Credit/Debit card. If they do have an account, they can choose to send it from their own PayPal account or via card. Either way, the PayPal system will credit your son's account with the appropriate amount. If your son needs to "invoice" someone for Payment, he logs into his account and selects "Request Money". Then fills in the person's email address and they will receive email from PayPay with teh invoice and a link where they can go to make the Payment. It's all pretty straightforward.
 
I have had absolutely no problems in either receiving funds or sending funds with PayPal.
 
PP is VERY political and will not allow funds to be transfered for items they deem unacceptible. Depending on the amount, they may hold it for 30 day. There has been instances where they kept funds because they didn't agree with the right to purchase certain items legally. I buy with them but never sell. You can get screwed as they error on the side of the buyer. A buyer can keep the goods and the funds if the do a charge back. I have folks send me UPSP money orders instead. He can get Square if he has a smart phone and take credit cards directly.

Don -
step 1: son opens his own paypal account using his own email address
step 2: son gives his email address to buyer
step 3: buyer uses his own paypal account to send funds to son's paypal email address

Son can leave funds in PayPal (and use for buying stuff), or transfer funds to his own bank account

voila!

I've never had a problem with PayPal! Last item I bought was out of Canada, my new TF grill. After I sent the PP monies to him, I was informed that he made a mistake on the shipping and would I be willing to add that to my payment? I re submitted my payment to him and PP made the correction. I've done business with this gentleman before and would never cheat him for making a mistake, anyone for that matter! Anyway, I use PP all the time! I only have one problem with it, the wife found out how to use it! No comment.:frown-new: PJ

I have passed it on to him but as a typical teenager,What does a father know?

"Well of course ~DAD~......there's a youtbue video for that..." ":rolleyes:"

Ya know, I was just thinking, this next bunch coming up should be a lot smarter than they have a right to be. Think about it, ANYTHING you could ever want to learn is now at you fingertips. Stuff that would have taken you a lifetime to master can now be tamed in a matter of months. No more having to lear from your mistakes, someone else has already made them for you. I don't know if that's good or bad, but I do know one thing, if I would have had the internet as a kid....I'd be dead, rich, in jail or all of the above. :grin:
 
Interview with Thomas Edison, "The New York Dramatic Mirror", July 1913

“Books,” declared the inventor with decision, “will soon be obsolete in the public schools. Scholars will be instructed through the eye. It is possible to teach every branch of human knowledge with the motion picture. Our school system will be completely changed inside of ten years.


“We have been working for some time on the school pictures. We have been studying and reproducing the life of the fly, mosquito, silk weaving moth, brown moth, gypsy moth, butterflies, scale and various other insects, as well as chemical chrystallization. It proves conclusively the worth of motion pictures in chemistry, physics and other branches of study, making the scientific truths, difficult to understand from text books, plain and clear to children.
“I do not think every home will have its own projecting machine, although the wealthier people will possess them, no doubt. The cheapness of film entertainment is due to its popularity among the many. The expenses per capita are extremely small. In a home the cost would be very great. The future will see motion pictures more or less in the home, while in clubs, in theaters and in motion picture houses they will be most popular.



(In really learning something, as opposed to just teaching imitation, it's not the technology, it's the human interaction.)

Onward through the fog.
