Can someone with Paypal help me out?

I am trying to purchase a new domain name through Godaddy. However they are asking me to first add a credit card to my paypal account before I can buy the domain. I am already verified so I guess this is because Godaddy requires it.

Would someone be able to make the payment for me? I could pay you in advance through paypal in case you were worried about me ripping you off :)

The transaction is only US$7.69.

Thanks for any help :)

Just to let you know he's legit. I've bought some fans off him before worth at least twice that. He's a good guy. Would buy from again.

Sounds like I'm giving eBay feedback lol.

Thanks Shenry, I only hope someone can help. I don't know how I will do this otherwise. I mean even if someone doesn't trust me, I'm still prepared to send them the money first.

Most likely they require a credit card so that if you miss a payment, they can pull it from the card.

Word of warning Kesava, I got an infraction for asking for money years ago on here....and it was only 50 cents >.>

Hmm, well I'm only gonna be paying for a domain and once I get it I'd sort out another way of paying for it myself...

Just on a side note...depending on what you need a domain for, .co.cc domains are free.

Yeah thats helpful but I need a .com domain. Thanks though.

Well I hope I don't get one. Then I will have 2... It's too late to really retract everything now and plus I have another question to ask.

Can someone please recommend me another domain registrar to use? I wanted to use Godaddy because they were good and I could get a cheap domain there and they have quick nameserver updates. But if I can't get someone to help me out then can I get some recommendations as to what else I could use?

Thanks

Just buy from dynadot - they accept paypal too. It's where I buy all my domains.
And most are even cheaper than godaddy. Especially the domain privacy - it's only $2/yr,
and I think at godaddy that is $8/yr.

I too didn't have a credit card when I started buying domains - that's why I went with
dynadot.

The domains are created instantly when you complete the order - no setup time.

Also, I really recommend the domain privacy. You really, really, really don't want your
home address listed on whois.org.

I'll check them out. I wouldn't bother with domain privacy. I mean usually I would but this is for a business website and I don't really need it.

Anyway thanks for the recommendation. I'll check out their site now.

Ok I have bought my domain from Dynadot. It cost me $9.25. They didn't give me any trouble and have quite a comprehensive control panel. I think I'll only use them from now on.

Thanks for the tip Euklid :)
