PayPal Question

Scotty · 18th February 2005, 09:02 PM

Right ive just sold my first ever item on Ebay, and the buyer has sent me an email saying that recived a receipt from paypal of her purchase and is asking me to confirm the payment. The only problem is that on my PayPal account...it does not state any payments been made to me.

So what i want to know is where to I find the info that states the confirmed payment...should it be on my PayPal account or would it be on my bank account?

should show in your paypal as payment from who ever, date and amount

But it doesn't have tried everything on PayPal to show this...and the buyer says she has definatly paid for the item.

Ask them to forward the confirmation email.

in your account overview you should have something similar to this:

Also if they bought it via ebay it will say in your ebay profile that it has been paid for. I think the person is chancing their luck

you also get a confirmation email from ebay/paypal which sometimes ends up in the junk mail folder if you use hotmail.
thing is if it ain't showing in paypal you ain't got it. it doesn't automatically go to your bank account. so unless it's sitting there you got no money.

not always i've had buyers pay via paypal instead of through the ebay checkout with paypal so it doesn't show as paid in the ebay account

*edit* however i do agree they may be chancing it

Since Ebay purchased Paypal they synced up. When you pay for something on Paypal it asks if you're paying for an ebay item.

yeah, all depending on the buyer selecting that option though innit
