payment

How can I find out if my buyer's payment went through?

[mtgraves7984]

The item will appear under Seller Hub/Orders/Awaiting shipment. Good luck.

eBay will notify you

Make sure it comes through eBay site to you FROM eBay

Don't text anyone or go offsite because someone said so

You should see payment information in Seller Hub, such as waiting for payment or amount paid.

Go to Seller Hub and check Orders and Orders Awaiting Shipping. If the Order is Awaiting Shipping, you are good to ship. 

If the the order is in Orders Awaiting Payment, then the item has not been paid for.

Here's a direct link to the seller hub orders page referenced above @ajloft92587 :

You're a new seller and you sold an $800 iphone.  Hopefully you did not take it off the eBay platform and allowed them to access your paypal account, thus sending you a fake invoice.  Did they ask you to text them? Accept payments ONLY thru eBay payment method.  You should have received a notice in your eBay seller hub stating you need to ship.  Note that eBay will hold your funds for up to 30 days to back the Money back Guarantee.  The fact that you don't accept returns makes this whole transaction questionable.  Sure hope you didn't ship yet.  Just sayin....

If you actually get paid for this, do think twice about sending it to a buyer that is using a freight forwarder (Typically, in Delaware, Miami/Dade, Oregon).   Newbie seller + eBay + IPhone + Freight Forwarder = transactions that rarely end well for the seller.

Do you realize that anyone can "reverse payment" AFTER they receive your item?   Scammers target new Sellers or anyone selling "high value items" (especially electronics).   EBAY will NOT protect you if you get scammed.

All I gotta say is good luck and be sure you add Signature Delivery.

thanks for the heads up. Sounds scary doing business this way

[ajloft92587]

thank you for your help

[ajloft92587]

Thanks! It finally came through

[ajloft92587]

Thanks for your response. The payment finally came through

[ajloft92587]

**bleep** there are too many ways to get scammed selling stuff this way.

I've shipped it now because Ebay has the money now, so I hope I'm ok

[ajloft92587]

no way! Why does Ebay let buyers reverse payments?

I'm scared I won't get paid at all and I'm going to be really **bleep**

thanks for your reply though
