*sigh*

I have just had an email from a seller that I paid late last night....my item is showing as Paid on her ebay page but there is no corresponding amount in her paypal account.

She wants to know if I have paid (yes, I have) and if there is an issue with the payment (yes, but at her end, not mine).  Has the payment gone through my paypal account (yes) and has it left my bank (yes again).

I am not even going to second guess what has happened.  I just confirmed that I have paid through paypal and the transaction is completed and the money is showing as leaving my bank....and told her to ring paypal.
