How can I use PayPal for an eBay purchase without verifying (linking PayPalto my bank account)?

I don't have a bank account, so I don't know what to do. How can I go through the purchase like this? I linked a $50 credit-gift card my aunt sent me for Christmas to my PayPal, but that isn't doing anything. Thanks.

    You need a Credit card account, but if you have no bank account (or credit-rating) it could be very difficult, especially if you are under 18.

    Your gift-card just wont work.

    Sorry, but Paypal will only let you spend a certain amount without verifying. Until you do, you can't spend anymore.
