I want to sell some Linden dollars and had a question. I know this is a very noob-ish question but I haven't ever done it before. I only have my credit card info on SL and was wondering if you have to have pay-pal hooked up to your account?

No you don't have to. They can pay you in other ways, but there are higher fees involved in that case.

You don't need PayPal at all if all you want is to sell L$ to cover tier/premium fees.

One thing to remember that seems to occasionally confuse people is that selling L$ and cashing out are two separate things. When you sell your L$, you'll get a positive US$ balance with LL. If you want to request a payout (through PayPal or by check), then that's a separate step (http://secondlife.com/account/ and the "Process Credit" link on the right side-bar).

(Edited to point out that you don't need to update your payment method. You can keep your credit card on file the way you have it now, and simply type in the PayPal addie when you request a payout)

Ok, thanks to everyone who replied, one more question: What is the fee (if there is) to have them send you a check?
