Paypal Electronic Fund Transfers

Hi,
How long do Electronic Fund Transfers take to clear? The buyer initiated payment from a German bank account on 08/06/06 but the payment is still pending. I've never been paid this way before, does it usually take this long?

Thanks,
Lara

    Is this the same as an echeque? If so it takes about 13-14 days so I think you would get the money by tomorrow. Cheers.
