Hi, anyone here use Paypal to buy Steam games?

I just want to ask any advice to make sure my purchase will go smoothly and not ending up with Paypal withhold my payment and Steam ban my account sweat.gif From Google, I found many horror stories about Paypal themself withhold or dispute the payment and Valve though the user themself dispute it and lock their account until the user solve the dispute, but Paypal insist that they are waiting for reply from Steam. So the user got caught in between.

I don't have a credit card btw, thats why I have to use Paypal tongue.gif

Any idea how to ensure my payment is safe and won't have any prob?
Does it have anything to do with the amount we transfer or how often we make payment to the same seller?

From what I can gather, Paypal is fine as long as you don't go and dispute your payment with Steam. Steam doesn't like that and you'll have your entire account locked out until you reverse the dispute. If something goes wrong, you didn't get your game, send a ticket to Steam support. Never ever dispute a payment with Steam.

Don't mess with them who can hold our game hostage tongue.gif

Its one of the thing I'm uncomfortable with Steam. They can legally withheld all access to our game which should have been illegal.
