This just happened to me as well. I sold an item on ebay on 1/27/18 and got notice that I had received payment that same day. I shipped the item on 1/29/18 and it has been received by the buyer. This morning I got an email from Paypal saying my payment was cancelled. Looking through the records on Paypal I see the following when I switch to the classic site.. " Reason: This payment was automatically returned by PayPal on Jan 27, 2018 because the funds were unclaimed for 30 days. I was not aware that I somehow had to "collect the funds," I'm not even sure how to do this. And it hasn't even been 30 days yet! It's been just over a week. So now the buyer has received the item and I'm out the $305 I was supposed to be paid. How can PayPal and eBay allow this to happen??
