We sent an order to the US in September to someone we had previously met in the UK
We calculated conversion and shipping, raised an invoice, sent invoice via PayPal, received monies and then posted
I have not heard anything to the contrary from the customer
This morning I received an email from PayPal advising me that this payment has been cancelled - how can they do that without a dispute being raised? We posted goods in good faith that these monies had been paid to us. I have also emailed the customer
this is the email received today

Looks as if you didn't add USD as a receiving currency on your UK paypal account ?
If you didn't accept the funds they would 'time out' automatically and be returned to the sender at 30 days.
