You are quite free with other peoples time and money aren't you?
Buy an item off eBay. I guarantee you that virtually 100% of sellers will refuse to send you any item until the money is in their account. :money:0 -
Actually I'm looking at a customers details from a sale just made, and it has their e-mail address.
Yes, agreed. But simmed entered his email address incorrectly somewhere, either directly to the buyer or on PayPal. Either way, he's incompetent, having never heard of autoentry on Chrome or Firefox or even copy and paste. The buyer is now the poorer without their item and without their money.
No idea why any of us are bothering to engage with him. It always ends the same way with reasonable people tearing their hair out.0 -

Yes. The email is obviously correct, as she replied to it. :money:0 -
You don't list your paypal e-mail login on each listing on ebay, it is set up on your account and provides an automatic link to your paypal account.
Indeed, which is a factor that perplexed me. I discussed this a while back with another member, we didn't come to a conclusion though.0 -
Yes their PAYPAL account, but virtually 100% of sellers can type their own email, unlike yourself.The truth may be out there, but the lies are inside your head. Terry Pratchett

Incorrect. As many members have pointed out, the money has already been returned to the buyer's account. :money:0 -

I didn't realise what you meant to start with, but if you see my post above in bright red (to make it easier to spot), you will see that I have sussed out simmed.0 -
