What is a delayed payment if I brought something from Ebay?

If I go to my Purchase History on Ebay it shows my payment is being processed? I also had a mail that said my payment will be sent at the 27th (!) of June.

Wat do, TBT?

Some companies do not actually take the funds until the purchase ships.

Private seller so that's not the issue.

I saw it's a Paypal echeck or something?

If someone doesn't have PP linked directly to a bank account, sometimes it treats the payment the same as a paper check. PP will not release the funds until they get official approval from your bank. That can take several days.
When the accounts are linked PP can access the funds immediately like a debit card.


Both eChecks and Instant Transfers are ways to pay with your bank account. With an Instant Transfer, the recipient receives the money right away. You only need to have a confirmed U.S. bank account to send an eCheck, but an Instant Transfer also requires a backup funding source such as a credit or debit card registered on your PayPal account.

Let's hope it doesn't take 14 days because I will just cancel my bid then, not gonna bother waiting 1 month or more on my cover.

Update:

This is what the seller PMed me:


Sounds good to me.

How long have you had your PayPal account? This has happened to me too when the buyer is new or he has no funds in his PayPal account and it must be taken out of his bank account.

2011. It was probably because I was negative on Paypal until earlier today. (bad bad bad I know, shoulda have fixed that first!)

Maybe the seller misspelled his paypal address. Has He received the money?

Paypal is pulling the money from my bank account on the 22th, which is tomorrow. We'll see.

I'm more hyped that I won a Toughmate case for 10$!
