Paying on Ebay
How you pay for an item depends partly on what payment methods your seller accepts. Read the item description before you bid to find out what payment options you have. Most sellers accept PayPal because it transfers funds immediately and they can ship your item right away instead of waiting for funds to clear.
The fastest way to pay on eBay is by clicking the Pay Now button, which allows you to use PayPal, ProPay, Moneybookers, or Paymate.
When you're choosing a payment method, look for options that are convenient for you, secure, and traceable, just in case there's a problem. Use this table to compare payment methods.

If your seller wants to change payment methods after the listing has ended, you can insist on paying with one of the methods specified in the seller's original listing.

Many sellers{99% in my opinion} accept Paypal Payment only!
Each time that i'm trying to pay for something it says : " we're sorry , your paypal balance and other existing payments methods are insufficient to complete this transaction. Please add a credit card "
