Do these transactions register as purchases or cash advances if you use an Amex credit card ? Thanks.
So If I wanted the cash, I could just pay myself in terms of goods for $3,000 , thus getting cash instead?
Sorry about the confusion, what I meant by my original question was if I purchase something from a merchant who only uses paypal for receiving payments, woud the purchase be treated as a purchase or cash advance ? On the merchant's website it says that the charge would simply appear as "paypal" on my credit card bill.
