LInking my PayPal and eBay accounts

[ayum-us2015]

Does anyone know how to link my PayPal and eBay accounts? When I clicked the "Link my PayPal Account" button, it appeared the display to create a new account. I have no idea why I can not link my PayPal and ebay account. And PayPal customer service do not know about this issue. I saw these steps on Help menu of ebay web page. ----- To link your PayPal and eBay accounts: 1.Click My eBay at the top of most eBay pages. 2.Click the Account tab. 3.Click the “PayPal Account” link on the left side of the page. 4.Click the Link My PayPal Account button. 5.You'll be asked to log into PayPal to finish linking your accounts. -----
