Default Buying stuff online w/o credit card?

hey everyone!

i'm in australia and i just had a question about shopping online. i found a couple of wicked rare albums i wanted to buy online, but the problem is i don't have a credit card, but i need to use paypal or similar equivalents. how i can use things like paypal or buy things online w/out a bank account or credit card? i'm only looking to do this as a one-off sort of deal.

I checked out bopo and it was too expensive with the fees, plus my friend has it and doesn't like it. Canvas card was really good but i want something one-off and not like a full on card.

help anyone?

Go to your local convenience store and buy a prepaid Visa or rush card. It works just like a credit card but you pre-pay it.

Anything your gonna get at a convenience store is probably legit.

thanks for the advice so far...rush looks cool, but I don't live in the US. anyone in Australia that could give me some help? I checked out this thing called VCARD and it's supposedly like a virtual credit card...they just give you a number and you put money on it. has anyone tried it before? i'm kinda skeptical about these things. thanks

just wanted to give you guys an update....i ended up trying out a visa VCARD and it works bloody brilliantly. it's just like a prepaid credit card, except they just give you a number to use online instead of having an actual physical card. Have tried it on paypal and another site and it worked 100%. I am very happy, and I should be getting what I bought in the mail soon! I highly recommend VCARD for all. You can get them at Mobil and Quix stations, but I got mine online at their website.

thanks for all the help everyone!!!
