Fasttech not taking Paypal?

I went to purchase an Erlik.... eric... erlkonigin clone from FT on www.fasttech.com and got this :



Bitcoin payments only? Sorry but not today. It may be a driveby redirect by some scammers, that or FT are being shunned by Paypal.

They cant sell certain Authentic items with Paypal, most peoples get around is to buy something else of the same value, then cancel, get a voucher and pay with that

Might be something to do with the Chinese dragon boat holiday???

Q has it right, you can't use Paypal for certain items, all the Aspire stuff used to be in this category, not sure if it still is.

you can also buy gift certificates (which you pay via paypal) and get your item without using bitcoins...

Got round it, by buying a different version of the same thing. This one. The v3 is blocked for Paypal so a v2 it was! For £17 I'll take the downgrade.
