Venting I'm apparently too dumb to buy SN

[Irisse]

The advert for SN source in my country expires in 14 hours. I can't buy because I don't know how to pay, and I don't know how to pay because my parents didn't teach me anything useful. Never in my 25 years on this planet have I payed a bill in the bank, and I still don't have a job since I'm in University. The source is also relatively cheap, and I will probably never ever find such a bargain again. Someone so dumb and incompatible with life as me really never should have been born. Sorry for ranting.

paying typically involves entering the numbers of a debit/credit card. Not sure if you have a bank account or not, but contacting them about getting the card can help.

Thank you so much for replying. I do have a bank account and a credit card and I did buy some things on Ebay in the past but never on this local platform. It says that I can pay with the card through something called Pay Protect (I guess it's like Ebay's PayPal). And the instructions say that a seller has to have PayProtect in their ad description if they want to use it, but I don't see it anywhere in the ad. I still have more than 12 hours to contact them, I guess I'll try to explain the situation (without mentioning CTB of course) but since my country is really small I'm paranoid that somehow they'll figure out who I am and what I need SN for. Thanks again for replying, you are a kind soul.

I have no idea what PayProtect is, maybe it is something the website uses internally as it processes credit/debit cards?

Edit, it is a tool for merchants to lower fees... for the buyer, it should be similar to debit/credit card purchases elsewhere: https://www.payprotec.com/
