Error Code 70010 11068

Hello! I'm trying to make a purchase on eBay with my PayPal account but I cannot get past the Checkout Review. I always get the error code 70010 11068. I've been on the phone with both eBay and PayPal and nothing has been fixed. What should I do?

Here is a *possible* solution I am trying now.  I propose that you have the seller manually send you a Paypal invoice (charge) to your email address.  To do this, however, they need your email address.  Ebay, however, blocks you from sending the seller a message with your email address, so I am trying this workaround.  Let's imaging my email is [at]hotmail.com."  Assuming that were my email, my message looked like this:

"Dear [Seller],

The website still is not working. Can you please send a manual invoice through Paypal, to my email address? My HOTMAIL email is ."

Give that a shot and see what happens. Perhaps it will work.  I am seeing now.

The eBay seller has the buyer's eBay email address in his "Your item sold" email message which eBay sends to the seller, and... the seller also has the buyer's eBay email address on his "My eBay - Sold" page.

I am also having same proble. If you get the invoice directly to paypal then this will not be covered in ebay buyer protection or paypal buyer protection

Specifically which text in the PayPal Purchase Protection Policy do you think excludes PayPal invoice payments?

I had this issue and was told "When you are getting error 70010 11068, that means the seller's account is restricted. It's best that you contact the seller to notify them that you are getting that error. The seller can also send a manual PayPal invoice for this situation."

I contacted them and they have no issues leaving the item unpaid until the error resolves itself. I did some troubleshooting myself and it seems that the item I committed to buy was one eBay had flagged as either counterfeit or under review. Hope this helps.

I had this Error code:  70165 11068 as well. I couldn't check out. I tried contacting them and paypal. No answers. I can say I got the Item Cheap and the user had a zero feedback. Maybe Paypal detected fraud of some kind.

Why the hell doesnt Pay Pal just give us an answer, do things always need to be this hard.
