Title: Wrong email address for PayPal? Discussion
Post by: *CountessA* on July 18, 2009, 11:40:48 PM
The link (http://forums.ebay.co.uk/thread.jspa?threadID=1200304101&tstart=0&mod=1247923963951) is here.

As you can see, some of the eBayers there are saying that as long as the PayPal payment clearly mentions the eBay purchase, that "As long as you use the pay for ebay items subtab you are ok" ... you're covered.

Another seller has said "The seller needs to send a new invoice and when they do this, they need to link the invoice to the ebay listing."

Who has actually EXPERIENCED this situation? Which of the pieces from your experience is correct?

If you MUST pay for an eBay purchase using PayPal (international) I have found it safest to just click the Pay Now button within eBay then there is no risk of being redirected to a phishing site.

Having said that I always offer to pay using Direct Deposit and in 99.99% of all local cases they take the offer and thank me :)

Is Direct deposit safe?

In over 800 DDs I have had ZERO go wrong.

I have had an experience of paying through PayPal to another email address - twice.

Both times there was no problem, but that's my point... Had there been a problem, one would of course want to know where one stands in the event of a dispute.
