hi! i had purchased something from a seller but realized i didn't have enough money, so i cancelled the order on that site. i'm just worried because i recieved an email from paypal saying i would be charged when the seller charged me- when i eventually buy that thing again, will i be charged twice? is there a way to cancel that eventual charge from paypal?

No. As long as the first transaction is pending and doesn’t go into “Completed” status, it will eventually expire on it’s own and drop off as if it didn’t happen. This could take up to 30 days to occur sometimes. If by chance it does go into “Completed”  status you can either reach out to seller to request a refund or file a dispute to request a refund.
