I want to change back from paying in 2 weeks to paying straight away

As the title says, I used to pay straight away when making a purchase. However, since changing to pay in two weeks I'm finding that some sellers withhold their goods until they receive payment. I don't know about you, but when I order something I want it ASAP. So, can anyone tell me how I go about changing back to how I used to pay.  Cheers

You're welcome.  Those sellers shouldn't be holding onto your item because they receive payment right away from PayPal with PAD.  PayPal fronts the instant payment and retrieves it from buyer later.

"...because they receive payment right away from PayPal with PAD..."

 

I read that when I went to my account. So I'm guessing that they would have held onto it anyway then. Or possibly the items are coming from further away than I'm being told at the time of my purchase. I'm thinking that it is probably the latter. Because they know people don't like waiting for their stuff. There have been times when I've had to wait months, when it came from China. So now I intend to try and avoid such distant purchases. Perhaps the sellers have become wise to this practice.
