Hello,   If I have a button for each painting I wish to sell from my site and someone in America buys a painting and I'm asleep and have 8 hours before I maintain my site abd take the painting down from the gallery...what is to stop someone else seeing the painting and trying to buy it by clicking on the button?   I know that I can tell the button that only 1 of the product exists, and so I am presuming that when someone clicks the button it takes them to a page that  says the item no longer exists.   I just dont like the idea of smoeone clicking on a buy now button for a page to tell them that it no longer exists...Are there any ideas as to what I can do?   Thanks ...

An email was sent to me saying i had to fill in adress details and card details, but it went to my mail guard spam box which paypal never does, so i was bit dubious...when i went to my paypal it does seem to have changed and say lift receiving limits, but unlike the other week when i lifted them and went through a process of uploading photos of passport and address, that option is not there...Do I phone paypal? any help would be greatfully recieved ...

I hope someone can help. I lifted limits by sending photo's of Passport and Proof of address. And they were lifted and every thing fine. I have built a website with some checkout buttons, i tested them and had a friend buy something from me and every thing was ok..Today a blogger talked about my site so I was excited and may be my new venture would take off...then i received an email saying my mailguard had quarantined a message...when I had a look it was from service AT paypal...dubious it was spam i opened it and it says i have to do some things to lift limits. the page looks like its paypal and it is asking for name, address and card details...it had th usual navigation bar at the top but it would not let me go anywhere else from that page.   Worried i closed it and went into paypal like usual. It says im verified and unlike before there is no little blue link saying lift limits...however when i click on the little "verified" link it does look a bit different...it says in quite big writting Lift Recieving limits...unlike before there are not the options fro proceeding to lift a limit. Before i downloaded all my ID details.   Does this mean that the email i got was a proper paypal email and i have to fill it in? If it is, then my only worry is it does not ask for bank details but card details, as my paypal is linked to my bank account...any help would be greatly appreciated as I was expecting my first custom today if all went well...   Thankyou ...
