When I sell books and get a Paypal payment I make a habit of sweeping the funds into my checking account. Over the last two days a customer bought six Walking Dead books. As each listing hit him with a $12.95 shipping charge I am trying to send a partial refund as I offer combined shipping charges. In the past, Paypal would take the refund request and send the funds a few days later when they took funds from my checking account. Today I got a message that my Paypal balance was zero and that I could not even begin the refund process until the funds were in my Paypal account. The most likely answer is that I need to grit my teeth until the funds are transferred a few days from now or until I make another sale. |

@drchaos your method of payment may have changed. Check your method of paying for the refunds. | ||

It's like the Roach Motel for comic collectors. | chester15 private msg quote post Address this user | |
With the advent of Managed Payments on eBay, PayPal may have changed its policies and procedures. Maybe YOU got caught in a sweep, instead of your funds. | ||

Last week, I had one transaction’s funds held by them for 24 hours. This week, I sold the same book in higher grade. They’re holding those funds for 21 DAYS. Seriously. I called and the automated system said once the item ships, & they have a tracking #, they’ll release the funds 24 hours after the book is received. I’ve sold books for significantly more. I have no clue why PayPal is doing this. They must be going through some kind of change over there. |

Ima gonna steal this and look for some occasion to use it! | IronMan private msg quote post Address this user | |
What is funny - in a sad way - is that PP is actually far better. half a dozen years ago they were so terrible multiple websites sprang up where people could air their greviances and seek help The oldest - Paypalsucks.com - claims to have had 10,000,000 visitors. There is also screw-paypal.com and paypalwarning.com. eBay appears to be trying to get away from PayPal with their managed payments program. I have doubts they will do so without creating new headaches - especially for sellers. |

Sold another book yesterday and used the funds to send the partial refund. Just one more hoop to jump through I guess. |
