Hi PayPal has taken £280 from me. I will explain the situation. I sold a pair of shoes using PayPal for £280 pounds my buyer asked for a refund the next day so I agreed. Since I had withdrawn all money to my bank by now I had to add credit to my PayPal account I asked for a transfer of £280 back to my PayPal. I was told it would take 5 working days. During this period, with a sufficient amount of money in my bank I purchased a coat through PayPal with no credit in the account, knowing it would take the cost of my item from my bank account automatically. The £280 then transferred to my account but my buyer then said he did not ask for a refund so I continued to sell my item. The £280 was immediately taken from my available balance by PayPal and I assumed this would be to pay for the coat I had purchased. I concluded that that would leave me with only £30 left to pay of the £310 for the coat. However days later a charge of £310 was also withdrawn from my bank account to my PayPal. When I looked in my PayPal it had not only taken £30 but the entire £310. This means PayPal have taken £280 and I have not been able to reach anyone at PayPal to resolve the problem.
Call your buyer, you can get his info from the eBay site. Maybe he will call eBay Paypal to explain.
