ebay payment transaction

I recently made 2 purchases on ebay.  I usually use my PayPal account but for these purchases I purposely clicked 'use credit card' instead of 'use PayPal'.  I didn't take notice of the first transaction when I saw it on my credit card statement but noticed today's purchase that stated "PayPal *name of sender*".  These purchases do not show on my PayPal account nor do I figure they should because I didn't effect payment to ebay using PayPal. 

 

Just curious as to why my credit card statement shows PayPal.

all EBAY SELLERS who accept Paypal payments will show up in your statement as PAYPAL * seller ID because individual sellers have no way to accept credit card,it is paypal who charges your credit card and once the $ is collected,it credits seller Paypal account/
