Just won an item on Ebay and used Paypal to pay immediately with my credit card. Well, I then got this email from the seller who said she is not shipping right away:
"Hi there, unfortunately I received an email form paypal that says it will take 2-3 days for me to receive the monies, I don't know why it takes so long when I made my payment it went through immediately. I,m not sending anything until I have the monies, I have done some shopping on ebay and II had to wait, till my check cleared. so sorry."
So, my question is.....does the seller REALLY have to wait to get her money from Paypal? No other seller in all my years of buying on Ebay has given me this story. They are usually thrilled that I pay immediately and so they ship immediately. Well, I'm confused. I certainly do not expect a seller to ship without getting the money but I thought it was instantaneous. Please, please advise me since I don't know if I now have a problem seller.
