How to confirm if you have been paid?
Dec 6, 2012 03:42 PM

I recently posted a listing for sale. When I listed there was prompt that informed me that I wouldn't see funds available for some time. What I want to know though, is if someone does buy it and I send it to them is there a way to confirm that the payment is there, even if I won't have access to it for however many days it indicates?

Look in your PAyPal account.

PayPal will indicate if the funds are "on hold" or paid to you.

They will also provide a shipping address.

 

DO NOT SHIP until PayPal says it is OK to ship.

Ship ONLY to the address provided by PayPal.

Sometime you dont see recent payment on paypal but they always send notification email that you got cash with the name of the person. And within 30 minutes you can see the transaction detail in ur paypal account.

Never rely on emails nor My eBay for accurate payment information.

 

Login to PayPal. Never ship without doing so.

 

New sellers subject to hold will see payments Completed-Funds note yet available but OK to Ship on the details page.

 

unless eCheck which will show Pending until date and Don't Ship Yet.

 

Always believe PayPal over eBay or emails. They can show payment when you have not been paid.
