Paypal slow processing right now?
 

It's July 2nd, 2016, 11:10am Pacific time.

Couple of orders from Paypal doesn't seem to be updated on eBay. It shows as payment pending, with the hour glass symbol on Ebay. Anyone else having this problem? I had a couple of orders go through normally. The abnormal ones, shipstation is not updating, a bit frustrating.

And yes, I've been on eBay for a long time, and it is NOT AN ECHECK! Trust me on this.

The payments are just under review if they aren't echecks.

That happens sometimes on all of my accounts. If it's a larger payment than you or your buyer usually makes/receives, a payment from a suspicious account, or a number of other things, this can happen. It's perfectly normal. I've never had a couple in the same day on the same account, but I'm sure there's a reason.

If you go to the Paypal transaction details it will tell you the transaction is under review. It will also tell you to wait to ship until the payment clears, just like an echeck.

Oh and just to add on to that, I have not had any payments put under review or delayed in any other way recently.

Yea, strange. I have 4 items that payment showed it hasn't cleared yet, all of course in different accounts. But then again, I have lots of accounts. Others are coming in normally at this point. I had an email from paypal notifying me of a payment, they sent it 3 times, I thought the buyer bought 3 of my items. As big as paypal is, their site has tons of errors.
