They haven't to claimed or captured the payment yet. Some merchants capture payment in batches so it'll take a couple of days before it goes into Completed status.

Does it say pending / unclaimed?
If so is there a cancel option?
If its pending / unclaimed then the seller or yourself have either sent it to an invalid email address ie spelling mistake or error OR he has not verified that email address OR its a currency the seller can't accept.
