I messed up

[Blackberry]

I had an auction on Ebay for some cosmetics. The winning bid plus shipping came to $9.25. I have clearly stated on my auction in big letters that I do not take credit card funded paypal. Well, right away I got an email from paypal saying I'd received a payment for this auction. So I leave her good feeback and mail the cosmetics. That was a couple of days ago.

Today I am at paypal and I see that it was a credit card payment and I'm supose to deny it or accept it and change my account to a business one, which I will not do. So I deny it. Then she emails me right away wondering why I denied her payment. I emailed her right back with my reason and asked how she would like to pay for the auction and gave her several choices. She has not emailed me back and that was hours and hours ago.

The thing is---whenever I've received a credit card payment, paypal always sends me a certain email saying that it was from a credit card and that I need to accept or deny it. This email that they just sent me did not mention anywhere on it that it was credit card funded. So I'm ticked at paypal.

But now she is in a position (and I think she know's this) where she does not have to pay me because I already left her good feedback and I already mailed her package.

I'm so angry about this. Hopefully I will hear from her soon and she will make good on her payment. :(

I hope she does the right thing and sends you your money. Keep us updated.

i can't tell you how many times people pay me with a credit car when i have in big bold red letters 5 times in the auction taht i don't accept them.

considering it's only been hours I wouldn't fret too much. You can still file with ebay that she didn't pay.

I would think you could edit your feedback too??? Hope she decides to do the right thing........

Nope, you can't edit your feedback on ebay.
I just checked my email and I received 2 emails from her saying she did not get my last email, so I emailed her again letting her know why I had to deny her payment. So I'm holding out hope now. I will update when I hear from her again.

Check her feedback. If she has good feedback then she will want to make things right with you. Some people assume if it says PayPal and they see the credit card symbols that you will take a credit card regardless.

Keep up with the big bold letters. Someone will read it.

Whew! She just sent a bank transfer thru paypal. I'm glad this ended well. :)
