Location: In Ky following Barrel Races & Walker hounds. | I purchased a camera from a seller on ebay about 3 days ago, seller accidently dropped the camera going into the post office, and immediately refunded me all of my money.
Last night I got back on eBay and purchased another one from a different seller and got a notice that my transaction was being "processed". Shortly after I got a reciept from paypal, and it says "Completed" on my end, but seller still hasn't received the money, she said paypal does this on occasion and will hold the money 1-2 days while they do an investigation. The only reason I can figure they would be doing an investigation is because I had so much $$ go in, then out, then come back, then I tried to buy something else more expensive than what I would normally purchase. I emailed paypal but they haven't given me much of a response. My husband is calling the bank to see if the money has left the account.
Should I request the seller cancel the transaction and try again if the money hasnt left? Or would that restart all of this "processing" stuff?
I have never had this happen before and there are more than enough funds in the account.
ETA- I have perfect feedback, and the seller has 98% feedback
