Hi! I bought an item through ebay, and never received it. I set up a case, and ebay closed it in my favor. They said they authorized a refund of the full amount. Also got a message from PayPal saying that I am receiving a refund of that same amount. My question is, I didn't use a PayPal balance, I entered a credit card # instead...still through PayPal though. And when I go back to look at the original transaction (that usually still shows, and then shows that it's been refunded), the original transaction isn't even there...it's like it never happened. How do I know that the refund will actually go back to my credit card? I can usually see the original transaction, and then any updates to it, like refunds.

Sounds as if you paid as a guest buyer but anyway card transactions NEVER go back to your paypal balance.
They automatically go back to your card BUT paypal say allow from 7-30 days however I have never waited longer than a week for mine.

nope, not a guest buyer...I've had a paypal account for over 10 years. it's just I entered a different card for a different option...just hoping it rerally does go back to the card. I also don't understand why the original transaction doesn't even show on paypal?

If you entered a card that was not linked or confirmed to your paypal account then you paid as a guest buyer.
