I feel really stupid asking this...but here goes.

I already have a paypal account and can buy stuff...how do I go about setting it up to where I can receive money as well. Do I have to pay for that service or what?

Thanks.

All the buyer needs to do is send the money to your paypal e-mail account.

Ok...and then instead of using a credit card to buy stuff...I could use the money I've accumulated from selling, to purchase items.... correct?

Can you also get that money out of the paypal account and back into your credit or debit card?

yep, you can transfer the money from your paypal account to your bank account. it takes a few days, but it works just fine.

I do believe there's a small fee to receive money. like 2% or something like that. but that might be just because I have an upgraded account so I could receive payment for my car.....I'm not sure.

im not sure if you can put the money back on a credit card, but yes, you can transfer it back to your bank account.

Numbchux is right, paypal does charge a small % on each payment you receive.
