Payment Pending Authorization

I bought some shoes off of Adidas using my Paypal account. I checked my paypal account transaction history and it says that my payment method has to be authorized to make sure that it can cover the payment. My payment will be charged when Adidas America Inc. has completed the order. 

I have more than enough funds to cover the payment and the money hasn't been taken from my account and I have not yet recieved a payment notication from either Paypal or Adidas. 

I'm wondering how long this all takes?

Sometimes merchants anywhere between 3-5 days to up 30 days to claim the money or process the payment.  How long has it been?  When you made payment during check out, did you receive a PP email receipt?


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
