There's no need to have them renew it since it's the way it's worked in the past with them - they do the preauth, then the charge hits when they collect months later. There's no record of the preauth at all in my completed transactions, same with my quarterly charge for the other site (which you would think would at least show up under my recurring/subscription payments seeing as it is one). It used to be that you could find them on your account a few years back, but after PayPal updated everything it's impossible to find again - if it even still exists. UPDATE: Found it, finally. Had to go to Activity -> click Statements -> Custom -> Activity download, then set your date ranges and put in a search term. So, they do the preauth to verify the account is legit, then cancel the preauth. Once payment time comes around, they do their billing and it hits the preauthorized account automatically. I still say it shouldn't be this difficult to find this info. At least if anyone else has that question, it's out there on how I found it, lol.
