PayPal payment after delivery

Hi
I sell on Ebay so I have a balance in PayPal but I rarely buy.

I am trying to buy something and have reached the check out and it says 'pay after delivery from account number ******' or 'credit card number ****** if not enough funds in the bank'.

Two questions please:

Can't I pay directly from my PayPal account?

If I have to use the above method dose the seller have to wait 14 days? I'm a seller and I've never had to wait except occasionally for an e-cheque.

What am I missing please, thanks


**** I found how to change it myself - thanks!****

    I bought some items 24 hours ago from my paypal balance and had no issues.

    By mid morning i had emails saying they had despatched the items.

    I just chose paypal and it actually said funds from account automatically.
