Question About Refunds and Adding Payment Methods

[timmah-67]

Hi all,

I sell stuff on eBay once in a while and I just had someone cancel their order. The item they purchased had the funds be put on hold and he wants his money back. In order for me to give a refund, I need to add a payment method so it gets taken out from one of my cards. If I do this, will I still get his initial money? I don't want to give him a refund out of my money and then not get the money he paid for the item, if that makes sense.

The 'hold' money is supposed to return. It's on 'hold' because you are a new seller. May take 30 days for the 'hold' to get to you (typically after shipping but since you are refunding and therefore closing the sale, it may be sooner)
