    They do, AFAIK, but they charge an extra 3%? I've never actually ordered from HWVS though, so take that with a grain of salt.

    Has anybody here paid HWVS with their amazon account?

    Always paid HWV with a bank transfer, under the "IBAN" option. Do the "fast way" that costs an extra €40 and the transfer is same day, or something, rather than four days.

    As mentioned before, they do Paypal with a UK email address registered on the website, but its very much hit and miss so it seems

    Damnit, I just paid them by IBAN - didn't see any option to go with PayPal (which I'd have preferred).

    It's weird, some people get the option, others don't.

    I'm ordering my build this week and I have the option of paypal but it says they Do not accept credit cards so Im guessing I can't pay with my debit card then ?

    I payed through my credit card (via paypal) on HWVS even though it stated that they do not accept credit cards back in December.

    They are Germans :P Paying by bank transfer (Überweisung) is extremely common and accepted and also very easily done online. (Irish bank online offerings only very recently added that option, with some you still have to ring to set up an international bank transfer). Offering credit card payments is way more expensive for the company and Germans are cheapskates :P (I am allowed to say that being German myself :P)
    On that note, if you come across any German blurp on the HWVD site you can;t work out, give me a holler
    Currently turning upgrade vs new build arguments over in my head, may pester ye lot in here with questions soon

    It took around 9 hours to ship from when I sent the payment . But that's only because I payed via paypal .

    That's very good, definitely worth giving them a go.
