First, use LindeX to sell your L$ for US$ credit (if you haven't already).

Then, log into the My Account page on the website and click the "Process Credit" link next to your US$ credit balance, to withdraw the money to PayPal.

Hi Antique,

In the 'My Account' page on the SL website, you can "SELL L$." Then you will choose "Process Credit" to have LL send your new US$ to you via PayPal. I will warn that this has been VERY slow lately (8+ days) so you might be better off selling your L$ through SL Exchange (www.slexchange.com). You'll need to create an account there, and verify your account inworld as an avatar, but this is a much faster way of getting US$ out of the system.

You need to sell your lindens on the LindeX first to get some money into your USD account. After you have a US Dollar balance, you can click the Process Credit link on your My Account page to request a PayPal transaction.

There's a 3.5% tax on selling lindens and it costs $1 USD to process credit. Oh, it also usually takes several days before your payment is processed.

EDIT: We are on the ball!

Also, remember that LL doesn't count weekends or holidays (like next Monday) as 'processing' days. Basically, you wouldn't hit the 5 days they *claim* is the maximum for processing until Monday the 25th if you sold today (day 0).

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

FYI: When I sell through SLX, my funds normally appear on PayPal within MINUTES.

Why LL can't do this is beyond me.
