A quick paypal question for the experts 0

[Westy Steve]

Hey guys,

Trying to keep from being killed by the wife.  So I have a question about using paypal credit to buy something.

Suppose I wanted to buy a comic book that I bought on EBAY for $1,000.  And I still have $600 of credit left in my paypal credit account.  Is there a way I can apply that $600 for the purchase, and then have only $400 come out of my bank account?  

FWIW, I know when I have a paypal balance I can do that, but what about a credit card balance?

Thanks guys.  The life you save may be your own.

No matter what we tell you it is best to call and ask them.  I believe it can be done but I would still call and ask.

My advice is be honest wife your wife.

You need to have the full amount of credit available to use Paypal credit. It won't let you split payments between two different sources.

I didn't even try to deal with that part of the issue.  Figured it was beyond anything any comment I could make.

Don’t buy comics unless you have the full amount in your PayPal account. And if you have problems with your wife about it, you have bigger problems...

And no they won’t split payments.

Thanks guys.  The wife comments was humor.  But...yes...they apparently don't split payments up.  Too bad, because that would have been convenient for me.
