An Ebay seller has issued me a refund, I got the Ebay email with the transaction number.
I have checked my PayPal account (both the regular and credit), no new activity whatsoever, doing a search using the transancion number shows no results.
Assuming that the refund will show up on PayPal Credit, because that's the way I made the payment to the seller, how long it takes to show up?
Thank you.

Merchants have varying timeframes for processing refunds for returns. You can generally expect to see the refund credit applied to your account within 7-10 business days of the date the merchant processed the refund.
You can see refunds online. Here's how:
- Log in to your PayPal account.
- Click PayPal Credit. You can see refunds since your last statement on this page.
- Click View statements , then click on the desired statement date to see refunds that posted on a previous statement.

Just curious - how long did it take? In my case, the credit showed up in my account summary, but the amount has not yet been credited to my PayPal Credit account (though it says that in the summary).

I am sorry, I know your question is how long it took, and after all this time I do not remember, but it did eventually with the date it was issued that was the same day I asked. The next day when I posted my thanks here, it had not been posted yet. I guess may be it happened that same day or a day after...?
