seller does not have linked paypal account message from a bidder

I received a message from someone who wants to bid on one of my items. They tried to place a bid and received a message stating "seller does not have linked paypal account". I have been selling on eBay for years and using Paypal to buy and sell and never had a problem. I sold an item last week that they paid through paypal with no problem. I have changed nothing. Yet, now, this message is coming up with a bidder who wants my item

 

I have tried to unlink and relink my account and nothing helps!!!! On the paypal site, there is no way I see to "relink' or "delink" my ebay account, so I've done that through ebay. 

 

Any suggestions?

Does anyone have a solution for this?  Has happened to me today although I've been selling for years without a problem.
