ok i've added another email address to my acct.  if i am understanding how this works correctly, any of my ebay sales which list the second email address will go to my acct if i list it as the primary acct.  then when i want to use my own personal email for my own purchases, i have to switch it back to be the primary.  is this correct?

You can have up to 8 verified email addresses associated with your PayPal Account.   Only one address can be designated as your PayPal primary email address.  You should not have change the primary adderss when linking with eBay.  You just eBay which email verified email address you want to use.

First; I am bit confused by CountryCousins question. It appears that he wants to use 2 different email addresses for one account.  (I am also wondering if I can do this.) I think he wants to sell with 1 address and buy with a 2d address.

 

Secondly; skier I am confused by your response. Are you saying that you must use only the Primary address to send money? In this case, specifically eBay; and that only that address can be used for all transactions? If so, then why the extra 7 addresses?

Please turn off your cap lock. It's rude, and considered yelling. This is NOT IRC, so capping is useless.

 

Immediately contact support. If the money is claimed, you have to contact the receiver.

 

Money paid to wrong party:
