It really depends on whether you are going to link a credit card or your bank account to your paypal. If I remember correctly, with a credit card you are verified immeadiately. With a bank account, paypal will send two small deposits, which you will need to set up you paypal. And that can take up to two weeks. I didn't need an authenticator to use paypal, but I had to sign up for the SMS alert thing.
Hope it helps. |

US server has a high population by the way. Prob quite a bit higher than Europe since I think Europeans were defaulted to US gateway for some reason.
Thats why the huge econ disparity. But it works in both directions. People have been flipping items like crazy. And the guy on the end gets stuck. Think of it as a game of chicken, economics version. Who can flip the most, its a game of brinkmanship.
Neither realm is "dumber" than the other one. That's just silly. Its pure economics and numbers. Particularly because RMAH is opened up to people with money but not a lot of time or gold.Last edit: 2012-06-15 18:03:30 |

EU can't use the US RMAH unless they're actually in the us. |

| Can't they use US RMAH with a US Bnet account (as long as Balance is selected and not paypal)? |

that doesn't matter too much, upto the point where RMAH was released, all those players sold / bought items for gold which created a bigger pool of supply & demand than in europe. |

You dont need SMS protect if using Blizzard Balance as the target.
Friends mobile number doesnt work so he is using that. That's what i figured all the EU on US players were doing.Last edit: 2012-06-15 18:16:33 |

Makes me sick to my stomach when people are auctioning better items for half the price than the next best thing. If it was the gold AH i'd just buy them all but a bit too high risk now  Last edit: 2012-06-15 18:41:44 |

| With the NA AH are the prices ACTUALLY being driven down, or are they going up, can anyone give an objective analysis of what's actually happening, might be useful for us EU guys. Like did the prices go up the first day? or down? ect. (obviously it makes sense that the price will go down, but just because it makes sense doesn't mean it's going to happen) |

Just thrown up 10 items, guess if some sell i get hots for free at least.
Won't have much use for it other then that tho, cause i don't see paypal as a legitimate option to cash out. |

Cause it wouldnt let me link my paypal to my RMAH yet, so i figured wtf, might as well try and sell it, and it sold in like an hour lol
Unfortunately no, money in your Bnet balance cannot be later changed for paypal money, you have to transfer it right away when making the auction. So basicly, you will have to spend 95$ worth of D3 items or blizzard digital goods  . Source: http://us.battle.net/support/en/article/battle-net-balance-frequently-asked-questions-faq#q6
can he buy a hots serial number and sell to people ? or transfer the $ for another acc?
Go buy something that's like $95 on RMAH with that money, then sell it for like $70 and payout to paypal this time. It'll be a horrible transfer rate, but better than nothing I guess. |

I'm pretty sure you can set up a paypal account in Slovakia as I am originally from there! |

@Ricjames: no you don't. Just link paypal to b.net account, set up SMS security. Takes 10mins and you're set.
you are lucky because people are selling 12M for just 40-50 euro. |

You wont be able to purchase HOTS with blizz bucks. They are essentially worthless unless you intend to buy old games or other D3 items off RMAH. |

You can't buy WoW subscription time, which I find super dumb, but there is no mention of not being able to buy future blizz games. If what you say is true, then this blizz balance is indeed worthless. |
