Transaction Id invalid

I sold an item on ebay and it shows that the payment has been initiated but when I click on the "View transaction" link on my ebay account I get a paypal message that says "the transaction ID in the link is invalid". When I log in to paypal it does not show the payment at all. Has anyone had this happen before?

exact same thing happened to me, but for six items  - extremely frustrating.  every one of them has an 'invalid id' when I click on view transaction details.

 

I have customers contacting me who have submitted their payment and seen it go through, but I can't ship their item and my reputation is at risk.

 

please assist asap.

Why is the transaction Id invalid for payment received on my Ebay account?  Will the payment still process?

I have had the same thing happen to me as well. Ebay says that my payment is still being processed through Paypal but when I click the Ebay link that states view Paypal transaction the Paypal site says the transaction Id is invalid and no payment information is shown on my Paypal account. How can this be fixed? Seller of course will not ship until payment process is complete. I can't cancel that process and try paying again. What is the problem?
