So, I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to reply to my own post!  How difficult can this be??  Oh my....  :_|

And yes, I am a tad ashamed.

I'm the one that has the 'Problems with paypal' topic on the go.   Anyway, this is a continuation of that post:

Thanks everyone!

foxette-in-sox : As far as I know, it's a personal paypal account and I've not had any problems receiving money from my other 2 eBay accounts.
I've also checked my email addy for mistake, but it's fine.  I'm stumped!

curraone : It was the first time I had seen that button since I originally signed up back in February 2012.  Odd?

digital*ghost : That's right, received the eBay emails notifications, but absolutely no payment notifications from paypal at all.   Email is correct. 


I still have this gnawing feeling that is has to do with not linking this new account with paypal when I was supposed to, but completely unsure as to what to do about it. 

Well.... I'll have to contact customer service to see what's going on.  *SIGH*
