buying from india

hi,
I want to buy something from India, no problems with the seller, or shipping, just paying.
Has anyone used PaisaPay?
It's the Indian version of Paypal, according to ebay.
I would rather use Paypal, anyone know if that is possible?
Thanks.

    Never heard of it I'm afraid.

    Well, it all went really smoothly. I clicked buy it now on the 1st of May, requested a total from them through Paypal which they offered as well, (as I wasn't sure about Paisapay) which I received in dollars, and paid on the 4th. (It would have been sooner but the time difference meant it took a day to reply to emails). Good exchange rate as well. They left me +ve feedback on the 9th, they posted on the 10th, and the item has arrived in perfect condition this morning. Now I've left +ve feedback for them.
