Hi, I am a paypal user and made a payment to a seller in Japan on 9 September. I got a message saying the transaction was complete. But up until now the the seller has not recieved the payment. The seller says he got the following message: 'PayPal has placed a temporary hold while we're reviewing it. We'll contact you shortly with further information.' The seller will not ship my stuff untill the payment is cleared. Can you tell me what is the reason for holding the payment? I have opened a dispute case on paypal, but they also have not given me a reason for holding the payment. They say I must wait until the seller responds. Which I feel the seller will not respond because he simply will not entertain anything or ship the stuff until he gets the payment. Further more the stuff was booked and scheduled to ship on 24 September. My worry is it will not be shipped until he gets the payment. Please help on what I should do.
