When I purchase from eBay using PayPal should this transaction show on my PayPal account?

If you log into your paypal account during checkout then yes, if you pay as a guest buyer via your card and the sellers paypal card reader then no.

Sorry being a novice I don't actually understand. I bought three items on eBay from 3 different sellers. When it came up pay by card or PayPal I clicked PayPal. It then went to PayPal who sent me confirmation emails. Unfortunately I deleted  these when the items were received as I thought they would show up on my PayPal account. However they didn't. They then showed up on my card statement as PayPal purchases no mention of eBay just the sellers. Sometime sellers are shown by different names when it comes to payment so I didn't recognise them. There was no information as to what I had purchased apart from general headings which again meant nothing. Thought they were fraud and cancelled them. When one of the sellers contacted me I realised my mistake. I am now trying to rectify this through my bank and PayPal. Unfortunately it is only possible to contact PayPal via text so I fear it will be a lengthy business.
