Pay after delivery question

Just realised that I've put a couple of transactions through without engaging my brain, and the money for pay after delivery comes out of my bank account when I'd far rather pay using the existing paypal balance.
I can't see how to change it for the transactions that have already happened where the money hasn't gone out of the bank yet - the pay now option is only giving me the bank account choice.
Is there a way of paying with the paypal balance or is it too late?
All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I've never used pay after delivery but I didn't think it was possible to pay any other way than with the paypal balance if there is one. It is possible that they say it will come out the bank account because they can't know that there will be a paypal balance when the payment is due to come out. You may find it does actually pay using the paypal balance. Someone else may know different but that's just my thinking on it.

    Pay after delivery is always taken from a bank account,even if you pay early.
    You can of course always transfer the money from Paypal to your bank prior to the payment being taken.
