Are there any good-decent places online that take paypal? Basically I have quite a few $$$'s on my PayPal account and I dont want to go through the hassle of getting it into my bank account, etc. Anyone got a good site?
Thanks.

Check what the shipping is like to the states (this is a canadian store) and if they accept paypal for US Customers. I live in Canada and this place is AWESOME. Has all your overclocking needs.

Paypal has a list of sites that they work directly with. Just click a few links on paypal.com and you'll find this page

If you don't have a CC, you can use your Paypal balance to pay for stuff. They make a virtual credit card for you. If you want to use it, just go to withdraw, and pick Virtual credit card. You need to be using IE though. Then you type in the merchant you want to buy from, and it opens up a bottom bar with your billing info for the CC. I just used it, and it was very convenient and smooth. Only problem is the $150 spending limit per day.

Aw, but in order to use it, you need to have a credit card anyway
