Problems with paypal

Hi everybody, I'm new to the boards and I have a problem.


I'm really sorry this is going to be so long winded but I'm guessing the more info I give, the more somebody can help me out.



I have 3 sellers (private, no shop) accounts and the 3rd (and last) was created about a week ago.



Yesterday I sold my first 2 items with the newest account.  This morning I checked my email and found 2 seperate invoice emails from eBay with customer/payment details.



I then went to check if the funds were in my paypal account, but they were not.  I waited a few more hours but found it strange because I usually find payment is quick.... but still nothing.



I went back to my eBay account and noticed that each buyer has a 'view paypal transaction' button (the first time I've seen these!) and when I click on each, it directs me to the paypal login page but also states that 'The Transaction ID in your link is invalid.'



I then discovered that even though I could list items with that 3rd new account, I had not linked it to my paypal account!  So I did that ASAP.



Now I'm wondering because of my big stuff up, will I need to contact these 2 buyers and tell them of this problem and do they need to re-send the money?  Or do you think I should wait another day or so in case payment comes through?



I really hope somebody can shed some light... the last thing I want is disgruntled customers because of my dumb mistake.


😞



Thanks!
