Where's my $?

I received a payment yesterday, it was there in my PayPal account, then this morning it is gone!  What gives?  Where'd it go???

@cimmi

Have you bought anything and paid for it via paypal since the payment went in??

The reason i ask is that if you have funds in your paypal balance and then buy something then paypal will sometimes take from those funds rather than from your normal funding source eg bank account or card.

To check go and click on the word "details" next to any recent paypal buying transaction and see if they were funded from your paypal balance ie buyers payment rather than your normal funding source.

That's what it was!  I thought they only did that if I asked to use it.  Thanks so much for your help!
