BidNapper Snipe on auction with PayPal account Required?

I am setting a snipe for an auction that has (PayPal Account Required) to be a bidder. Will my snipe still work. I have my eBay and PayPal accounts linked. Anyone ever tried this before?

    It works for me with Justsnipe. Never had a problem.
    Still never understood that "Paypal acct. required" bit.
    Where is that function and what is its purpose? When I do my auctions, I only accept Paypal now but still never put that on top.

    I have lost out a couple of times using JustSnipe in this scenario. Just doesn't work, as there is an extra step involved, and the sniping software fails.
  • Even when I took Paypal a auction that was marked Paypal only was a red flag to me so I always hit the back button. To me taking Paypal only is killing your sales as there are many good buyers out there who will never send a Paypal payment and there are more and more everyday.

    Something that is happening with Paypal is many buyers do not have a CC on file nor will they put them on file (you can get a confirmed address without one.) Without a CC Paypal will only let a buyer spend 2000 dollars max, many buyers are hitting this limit and refuse to add the CC. Add this to the number of buyers who have been screwed over by Paypal and you see why Paypal is losing ground.

    I have said it before if you use Paypal for payment it is just a matter of time before you get the shaft.
