Sadly, it seems i won't be purchasing the textures i was hoping for to do a little scratchbuilding......it seems recent changes have meant that i now have no option but to sign up for paypal when buying from scalescenes. There used to be an option to pay by credit/debit card, but now no longer. If i try to pay, it automatically signs me up for a paypal account, which is something i am unwilling to do.
The preceding page has this link Pay with a credit or debit card(Optional) Sign up to PayPal to make your next checkout faster
But on clicking that link, it goes to Create a PayPal account
And pay with your debit or credit card
There is no longer an option to not join paypal in order to pay.
