I cannot collect my payments because the link is no good.

Check your PayPal email as to whether it is spelled correctly.

Is your PayPal even linked to eBay?

The email address on your listings has to match an email on your Pay Pal Account.  You can have several email address on Pay Pal but the one on your listings has to match one of them. Go to Relist on one of your items and see if you made a typo on your email address.

Those links from My eBay are often invalid.

 

Communication between My eBay and PayPal has been glitchy since day one.

 

Just login from your browser, type in www.paypal.com and then bookmark or favorite it. Use it every time instead of clicking over from eBay. More secure anyway....

You should be logging on to PayPal to verify every payment before shipping.

 

You must see the payment is Completed (even though funds not yet available) and OK to Ship before shipping. Every payment.

 

You must also log back on and make sure your tracking numbers have been uploaded to get your payments released to you sooner.

 

eBay does not always transfer the numbers, even when you use eBay Shipping.
