How to pay shipping later

[ithelps]

There used to be a button where I have the option to pay shipping later. I am trying to print a label but can't pay shipping later

You dont have 21 day holds so the button goes away.

This is a new paypal and it does have 21 day holds.

I even had it when i had my main ebay and paypal account. It had no 21 day hold and i still had it. hmmm.

Do you have a CC attached to your paypal account? If you only have a bank account than they will not give the option to pay later

I have this same problem it's very strange - also on 21 day hold still and have CC attached

I don't have a bank account attached. Just a cc. But I can't pay later... I have money pending and have 0 balance in this paypal.

I could transfer some funds to this one but risky.

It said to get more payment options, link your paypal. I linked it but still don't have additional payment options. hmmmmmmm.........................

Call paypal, it might be something simple on there end that can be fixed.

But if you have a CC attached and are not receiving instant payments than they should release funds for shipping, sounds like a glitch

Lol. No more calling ebay and paypal for me. I'll just pay it lol.

Last time I called ebay, I had an hour long lecture by some nerd that won't shut up telling me how I should run my business and then reports me to get my account suspended. PayPal on the other hands are not any better.

I'll just pay out of pocket I guess.

Same exact thing happened to me last week, I think it was a glitch because when I logged back on an hour later it worked fine and the pay later option was back..

Maybe, Ill wait it out until tonight. Did you have your paypal and ebay linked?

[Shellygirl55]

Yes I did.. It was so weird. I logged back in so on could get the address and ship manually through usps and clicked one last time, and it worked.. Next morning had the same issue, so I logged out then back in and it's worked fine ever since.. Go figure.. Good luck

I ship through stamps.com or auctiva in the beginning, so these glitches aren't an issue. Too much trouble with this stuff in the beginning few months until holds, etc have fallen off.

When in doubt bail, very smart move

In my experience with the past few stealth accounts, for some reason the first label I print I have to pay for. Then after I ship the first the option appears to pay later. No idea why, but I guess it is something to do with setting up the service. I even tried clicking the text below to set up the shipping settings and link eBay/PayPal. Verified PP, credit card and bank.

Also just as a note, if your shipping cost exceed the amount of the payment received for the transaction you will not be able to pay later.

There was a glitch in PayPal system for 2 weeks. I think there was a transitional period and a lot of the functions weren't working. I create an account everyday, and this only affected the accounts I had created for the last two weeks. Everything is ok now. For the last 2 weeks during the transition, my money was actually released upon payments. But now they put it back on hold. There are some new buttons added and some deleted. For example, new accounts now can't add mobile pins, but now rather they use security mobile passwords. Best to keep a close eye on the new transition.

Is stamps shipping cheaper than paypal shipping?

What did you use to pay your first order? A credit card?
