I completed a trade back in 2015 with the buyer requesting that I send him an Invoice via PayPal so that he could use a 0% financing option through PayPal Credit. At the time, I didn't see any reason not to, as it looked like the sale would be protected on my side as long as I followed the normal rules(retain tracking information, signature required for delivery, only shipping to the address on the paypal payment receipt).
I did a quick search and nothing came up, but I figured that it doesn't hurt to ask as I've had another buyer request to use it to pay for their purchase., Anyhow, if anyone has had a bad experience, or a good reason not to use a US based buyer use it to purchase from me, please do share!
Thank you for taking the time!
Any reason not to let someone use PayPal Credit?

Re: Any reason not to let someone use PayPal Credit?
It should be the same as a normal payment for you but It would allow them to make payments on the purchase to paypal. It's just a credit line through paypal. If they don't make the payments to paypal it's the same as them not paying for any other credit card.
About me:
1. GW retail doesn't equal value if you intend to sell me assembled/stripped/primed/painted items. These all devalue them and anyone can get 20-30% off GW retail NIB.
2. If I take the time to write you please be kind enough to at least tell me no or not interested.
3. Lowest reference ships first

What Tyrius said.
With PayPal credit, any purchase over 100% to a business or via an invoice gets 6 months of 0% interest. If you just send the money, it doesn't count as a purchase, so you don't qualify. But on the seller end, it comes through like any other payment, with the same protections and everything.
