I've not used PayPal for ages and have been selling items online. The buyer requested that I use PayPal. I have the app on my phone, it looks like all my info is verified but I can't recieve payments???

The option to 'receive' paypal payments is sadly not available in Macedonia.
You can only 'send' payments for purchases.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive paypal payments.
