Hi, I recently spent 110 pound/ AUS approx $240 through Depop as the Au BUYER, the seller is in the UK. So on my Paypal, it said the payment cleared on the 14th May, 2016, but my UK seller says she has not received any indication in over three weeks of payment from Depop or Paypal, and I'm worried she will think I'M a scammer even though I have been sending her as much info as I can, and screenshots of my theoretically successful payment from my end. Could there be a delay because of currency conversion? Is this the standard waiting time now, because I have used Depop for a couple of years and Paypal since It came out in Aus, and never had to wait this long as buyer or seller for a payment to transfer. I have read below about ensuring the email address is correct, and have sent this to the UK seller to check. The other thing is that, understandably, the UK seller will not post the item I've bought until they recieve the payment. Will it be the end of AUS winter before I recieve my coat?! I know I can't ask her to send the item when she hasn't been paid, but surely noone else is waiting a month before the item can even get to the post office, how can we trade online like that? Is there any assurance I can offer the seller that its safe for her to send the item? Thanks for your time! Aliiced.
