change your payment options in your master account to what you want to use and then change it back.

I appreciate the advice and will give that a go when the store comes back up (can you have no credit card and just a paypal account? I guess we'll see!) but the thrust of the post was to ask them to add the character slot purchase functionality to the store, not seeking a workaround.|

Seriously, thanks for the idea though
Just to follow up on this, no, you cannot set a Paypal account to be your primary billing. It just asks you for a credit card.
Not 100% sure this is the forum to go to, but can't think where else it should go.
I'd like to purchase a couple more character slots, BUT I cannot do it through the store/NCsoft website. I can buy character slots for Guild Wars, which I don't play, but not for CoX. The only way CoX lets us buy slots is through the actual login screen.
The problem with this is that it automatically bills my credit card if I do that, without asking for another payment method. Through the online store, I can buy things with Paypal.
My credit card is of very limited use, and I am only allowed by that budget to purchase monthly time with it. However, my Paypal account (which is hooked to a bank account) is my own personal money that I make from sales, and I can spend it as I choose - and all my peripheral buying in CoH (boosters, expansions, etc) go through Paypal.
Yes, it's not a really big deal to use the card for a $10 purchase and then handle the payment manually, but it is a pain to me that I can't buy slots through the store. If it's at all possible, that might be something NCsoft should consider changing.
