Anyone can tell me which one cost more, of course paypal has better security... but some trusted website i don't think it is necessary for better security cause it's trusted and has many testimonials, good ratings by yahoo!shopping and bizrate.

but which option is cheaper? pay direct to the wedshop by credit card or via paypal?

which exchange rate would be less?

I've purchased loads of item online with credit card ,and one thing you must make sure that they are internationally recognized merchandisers ,

You can safely use credit card ..paypal is good too..but no personal experience using it..

sorry..someone else could help you on this..

It depends. It depends on where the website/company is getting his/her exchange rates from if you decide to pay by direct credit card. You can then compare it with PayPal, I suppose.

I'd recommend PayPal anyway, just for the added security. You hear of people being victims of identity fraud all the time, it's possible to still fall into traps even when dealing via trusted sites.

For ease of mind, I'd just use PayPal.

Pay pal also will use ur credit card when u link ur account with ur card. But its safer also.. I have experience buying something from ebay and the dealing went sour. So i had to put a dispute on the seller account, and he returned my money the next day and case closed. pay pal also recommended when u dealing with untrusted sellers. But see the sellers profile and feedbac before buying things..

I've purchased alot of items from oversea using paypal and I am very satisfy with paypal. More secure and the exchange rates are sometimes lower than I expected.
