Thread: Paypal..is it possible to...

hi, I want to use the paypal cart on my site. I offer gadgets that sometimes depend on availability from my vendor. I'd like for the customer to add three to the cart, one at the normal price, and two others at $0 just in case their first pick is unavailable or something to this effect. Is this easy to maneuver in paypal or are there any other options? Will the customer's paypal invoice show it as that they "bought" two extra items a $0...you could imagine the problem with that.
I'd also like the customer to have the ability to customize, such as remove a piece of the gadget for a lesser price. I've searched the paypal site, but they make it seem as if you need a degree in html to customize your cart.

General Naval has told us that there are many things that you can do to customize PayPal if you have the technical knowhow to manipulate their forms. For most of us, however, within PayPal itself, I do not believe these sorts of customizations are possible.
Perhaps Naval will come along and comment.... or Whatdaflip?

lol, well, I'll await the good general then.

You will need a cart like Soholaunch or oscommerce...the payapal cart on its own has limited functionality.

Alternatively, create buttons with different prices. I got stuck with the postage prices, so I just created a link for different prices depending on the quantities people ordered. That's just me being impatient, I had somebody wanting to order so I did this as a quick remedy, now that I've seen it works easily I'm keeping it.

I received an emai from paypal******.com warning me of suspension. I do not remember subscribing to Paypal yet but have tried searching their website to get more information. Why is it that there was a warning generated against me. I tried repsonding to the email but I did not get any reply from them. Is my vodahost subscription includes paypal?

Please clarify.

I doubt paypal has a yahoo address for starters, this sounds like a spoof email to me and one that should just be ingored and not even responded to.

Good point!
