Steam + Paypal question

Hi, ive never bought a game via Steam before, ive used Steam though.

I want to buy games via Steam using my Paypal account.

Im just wondering, i have no bank account or card registered with Paypal. The money i have in Paypal, was sent to me.

Will i be able to just simple use my Paypal with my steam account, or will it ask me to verify my Paypal account.

it should be fine. Just give it a go, no penalty for getting to the paypal payment screen and walking away from the purchase if it doesn't let you

I think when I bought a game on Steam using Paypal, it sent me to the Paypal site to verify the purchase, clicked ok and Steam continued with the transaction as normal.

Yep. Just bought BF2 + expansions (Already had BF2, but wanted the lot on the special offer) and Dead Space (Wish I hadn't, its a sodding 3rd person shooter).

You can pay with money in account or cards / direct debit etc.
