Can you buy ammo with PayPal?

Is this guy jerking my brothers chain? Is there a waiting period for payment to "clear" when using paypal, or is it as I understood, payment is IMMEDIATE? Thanks for any help.

The spirit of encroachment tends to consolidate the powers of all the departments into one, and thus to create, whatever the form of government, a real despotism.."

they also charge a small fee to do a transfer to your bank account. Sending money is free. Receiving it will cost you the fee.
They have never charged me for transferring to my bank account.
if you're smart, you have a paypal debit card. then its just as simple as going to the atm and taking the money out at your convenience instead of waiting days for a wire transfer or weeks for a paper check.
A wire transfer with Paypal usually takes under two hours to appear in my bank acct.
Edited for spelling. OOPS!!!!!![:D]

If I paid through the PayPal system using my CC, the merchant simply credits my card.
If I paid through the PayPal system using the wire transfer directly from my bank account, the merchant credits my PayPal account. If this is the case..
..then I simply transfer the money from my PayPal account back into my checking account. And, yes, it takes, on average, about two days.
But, my goal is to maintain Zero balance in my PayPal account.
[Procedures above] is what I have been using for years. Best, Joe
OK. I use my debit card to make purchases with Paypal. Is that all the info they need for a refund. Or will I have to give them the routing number etc.
Limited background, here...
Do you have a PayPal account? That's what I assumed (bad move on my part) when I posted.
If you are using your debit card, just make sure the checking account number, and the routing number is on file with them. That's the key to transfers..and you will be free from having to use your debit card ever again in the future, as all the transactions you pay for will automatically come out of your checking account..(unless you specify using your Credit Card that's on file with PayPal).
The refund comes from the merchant selling you the goods. PayPal is only an intermediary. Refer to my first post
Best again, Joe

Interesting. They've always taken a few days for me. I wonder...
