I've been warned before that paypal can't be trusted; I tried to make
a purchase on this website, and it wasn't letting me use my credit card;
that needs to change

Mmmmh you don't need neither a PayPal or Stripe account to pay with PayPal
or Stripe.

Simply use your credit card.

I think that doesn’t work with PayPal Onsite on BL.  And US buyers have to use
PP Onsite or Stripe.

So that leaves Stripe for OP… but not all sellers offer Stripe.

You can use a credit card to checkout through Paypal without having a paypal
account. Paypal protects buyers and can be trusted. Welcome to Bricklink and
good luck!

Paypal closed my account and i can't see the "Guest Checkout" option so i
think you're actually wrong here.

PayPal off site is fine, or Stripe also.
Find another seller - like us - but there are hundreds

OP being in UK, they are limited to Stripe and PayPal Onsite for non-UK sellers.

Well, for orders under £135 that is.  So maybe buy more?

I gotta say, I’m impressed! You made that entire slide simply for a forum venting!

Cool editing!
