Question:

[rivendellelf23]

If I was to put something up on ebay and it sells (and the buyer pays me through paypal), can paypal put the money into my checking account?

If it can, how do I set it up?

Yes, PayPal can do that. You have to register your checking account with PayPal. You'll need your bank name, routing #, and account #. It's that easy. ;)

She's right, the only slightly annoying part is that you will have to move it from your Paypal to your checking account yourself.

I got a Paypal debit card (it has a Visa logo on it). MUCH easier.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. When you move the money from PayPal to your checking account, it takes about 3-4 business days.

unless you really need the money i would suggest just leaving it in the paypal account. one, the interest rate is better than a bank one. two, as what happens with me...i start selling on ebay and then i start buying on ebay, this way you know that you have the money in the paypal account instead of snagging it from your checking/savings account to pay for what you buy.
