basicbob101 Pillar of the Community United States 819 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 11:07 pm I have a friend who sells on ebay, as I do; and he told me he had a buyer pay for an expensive auction item via paypal, the seller (my friend) did same day shipping with delivery confirmation. As soon as the buyer received shipping confirmation he reversed the paypal payment and it was sucked back out of my friends paypal account. I don't know what the final outcome was, but he now insists on keeping his paypal account at next to nothing and won't ship anything until he transfers the payment out of paypal and into his bank and has confirmation of that. This delays shipping by several days. Can this really happen? Also I have heard that delivery confirmation carries no weight with paypal, you must get a signature, that so as well? appreciate your responses Report this Post to the Staff

Morgan Fred Rest in Peace United States 2684 Posts	Posted 04/15/2007 11:18 pm Bob, others may have different viewpoints and experiences, but I don't know of any means by which a buyer can recover a payment except via filing a PayPal dispute nor do I know of any PayPal mechanism for canceling an auction payment, at least in this time span. I don't believe this can be done in a single day. I think we need some more details on your friend's experience. For shipping anything of any value (I have my own cutoff of $50 and up), I include Signature Confirmation at my expense. I don't believe PayPal will settle a dispute based on Delivery Confirmation only. Fred Report this Post to the Staff

DC is sll you need for $249.99 and under. SC for $250.00 and over. Shop CCF Members on eBay. Report this Post to the Staff
