Do I need a paypal account if I bought an item from someone on ebay? -

Ok so I placed an order for a nintendo gamecube classic controller using my debit card yesterday. But on my recepit it says I paid using paypal and thats what was charged on my account. The problem is I don t have paypal so now Im worried. Does this mean the transaction went through and why did it charge using paypal which I don t have? Please help!

if you buy an item you dont need paypal - they need ur credit card number to bill uhowever if u are selling something u might need one to make an account
