PAYPAL - What happens if I try to purchase something that exceeds my balance?

Question

Lets say my Paypal balance is only 3 dollars and I wanna buy something for 6 dollars. Do I have to wait to get a money transfer from my bank account or something or do I just get like a negative balance for paypal? What happens? I am able to do this?

Answer 1

Assuming you have a bank account on file at PayPal, it will charge the difference to your bank account.  You don't need to manually transfer money from your bank account to PayPal before paying your seller.  PayPal does that for you in one smooth transaction.

Answer 2

No! You can't do it... I have tried

Answer 3

It won't let you take more then you have. If you try to purchase something it will tell you that you do not have enough funds.
