Although I have decided this week that I am not going to use eBay anymore to sell the occasional item, I did sell an extra Mustang dash pad a couple of weeks ago. The buyer paid through Paypal last week. It shows up in my eBay messages as pending and their is a "claim payment" button. When I click on it, it links to Paypal, but it doesn't show any payment yet after almost a week. Anybody every experience this? I thought maybe it had to clear or something, but it isn't seeming that way now.
I think I figured out what I did wrong. We moved last spring and I changed my email address on eBay and Paypal. I DIDN'T change it where it comes up on the listing form. So however he went through and paid, it went using my old address. My bad. So it doesn't show up in Paypal. I'm now trying to convince him to cancel the first payment and redo.
