how does paypal work?
I just signed up for paypal and ebay because there is something I desperatley want... what I need to know is if there is a way to put like 100 $ on my paypal account so when the purchase is made it will not deduct from my bank account of credit card.... is there a way to put money on my paypal account?? if so how??

There may be a way to do that but I don't understand why you would want your money tied up for a period of time while you wait to make a purchase. The PayPal account is tied to a personal credit card so if you really wanted to do that you could simply overpay your credit card so you have a positive balance rather than a debit and let it sit there until you make the purchase.
Normally, you just allow the transaction on your credit card and pay it off before the account is due.
Why would you want to bother doing that if you have your credit card or bank account verified with PayPal? Unless, of course you borrowed a parents card or bank account in order to even open a PayPal account. LOL
Put the $100 in your bank account and use your bank account in order to pay for the purchase.
What you are proposing to do makes you sound as though you are a bit shady or you are trying to bypass someone finding out you used their banking or card info to verify your PayPal account.
i beleive you can mail them a check, but it takes much longer. first, i would call paypal customer service.
