UH OH how and why ebay fees

[MtnDew]

I paid my ebay seller fees with my paypal account. I had enough in my paypal to cover the fees. Well, paypal decides its going to write an echeck instead of pay from my paypal balance. Dont know why and no I was not drunk it happened. :(

1. Here is a link to why you should not pay fees from your paypal before someone else posts it http://www.aspkin.com/forums/ebay-di...do-safely.html

2. Why did this happen?

3. How do I fix it? or is it going to be a problem because my bank account is in my name.

4. HWGA "somehow I told you so just doesnt say it"

Never had this problem, if you have the funds in PayPal then it should always take that as payment unless you state otherwise.

ya i know thats why i posted done it several times with my account not sure why it happened

Thing about paypal when they get your money in there they want to keep it in there! they will take from any other sources they can before dipping into the blance. They do this so when they limit your account they will have all that money locked up in there.

Sometimes I wonder if PayPal has some sort of cash flow issues. Certainly they are big enough to make good on what they owe, but maybe they are hiding something from investors? It just seems that EVERYONE has these stories about PayPal. Not just forum users, but a ton of others, as well.
