Guys, correction, pwede Phil, you just can't RECEIVE payment with it if you use a Phil CC... You can, however, make payments through your CC.

PAYPAL user since 1996 actually... it's safe (just like credit card), the only real threat you have are phishing emails.

I receive about 3-4 fake eBay and PAYPAL emails daily, asking you to update your PAYPAL/eBay info...

It's really easy to spot, because those two NEVER ask you to fill up anything hehe... Just ignore those emails and change your passwords often.

If you buy from ebay and have it shipped to the Phils, do you need to pay taxes? And di ba hassel sa customs?

User: Depends, most merchants will just ship it legally through FedEx, USPS, UPS, in that case, the items will be held up by the couriers (except USPS, since that'll go straight to the post office, the Phil post office will hold the items) and send you the bill for the tax...

Some smaller merchants will allow "requests" for misindicating the invoice hehe.
