    Personally nothing for at least 24 hours, I would leave it until tomorrow morning and see. EBay has these glitches from time to time. You could contact seller and ask them to confirm payment received in the meantime.

    Talking to EBay is like talking to a brick wall so best leaving that for a while.
  • Someone brought an item of mine a few weeks ago on BIN, I had no mail from ebay or paypal to say it had been sold. It was only cause I was looking for an item on paypal that I saw it had been sold.

    If you haven't heard anything in 24 hours I would contact the seller, they will be able to check it all out very quickly.

    For some reason my paypal payments on sales have started going into my junk mail. I also didn't recieve a notiforcation of sale from ebay for until 12 hours later - after I had received payment.
