Make sure when you list an item, on the listing page it will have a whole section for Paypal info...maybe that info is wrong and you need to update it.
In the Paypal section on the item page, it doesn't list anything about what address to send it to, just that PP is accepted. I would assume that when the buyer pays, if it goes through PP, it would look at my address I have listen in my profile as my linked PP address, and send it there. That seems to make the most sense.

I'll probably get screwed out of this, so that'll be awesome.

 
Legumes are actually just a common variety of spreadsheets.

I am with the people who think all the bean hate in here is weird. I think most beans are fine and beans in chili are good. I used to hate lima beans, but I had to eat them all the time growing up because my dad would grow them in the garden. Now I like them just fine. If you want to know something that is actually nasty, it's beets. Ugh.
I hate beets. They make me want to barf because they're so nasty :(
 
I didn't tell him that because it still shows up in Paypal as pending. He's saying nothing shown up at all. Meaning they sent the payment to an e-mail not associated with his PP account.
But if his paypal is linked to his ebay it should go to the correct account. I have the same setup, different emails for ebay and paypal and have not had an issue!

EDIT: When you make a payment through ebay it is just sent through ebay to the paypal account linked. you do not manually enter an email!

Nah, you wont be screwed out of it, it's just gonna take longer. But you're a rich fuck, so thats not too big a deal. Easiest would just be to call. They can likely refund the payment to the buyer and direct him the correct e-mail address to send the payment to, and likely straighten the discrepancies out for you in the process. It's likely just a case of mixed e-mail addresses somewhere in one of your accounts.

 
Ok, I think Keeper might be on the right track. On my selling page, it has an "Estimate funds availability date" of 8/21/14. It also says on the item page: "Payment was initiated on Jul 31, 2014 and is being processed through PayPal." And I also have a View PayPal transaction link, the same thing I have under My eBay, but clicking both tell me the transaction ID in my link is invalid. Maybe Keeper is right, and they're just holding it? But I've updated tracking info, and the only thing I have left is feedback given and feedback received.

Right, unless his e-mail somewhere on eBay is not the same one he uses for Paypal.

 
Like I said, unless you did an outside ebay transaction, Ebay just puts the money in the linked Paypal.  Now if it was outside then the buyer puts a manual email.  But on ebay if you buy anything they never ask you to enter an email it just sends it the paypal linked, otherwise many transactions would probably get messed up.

your just going to have to wait for the estimated date

So does the payment show up in your paypal transactions then?

Deep breaths here.... NO! Email doesn't matter when going through Ebay! I have a hotmail account for my ebay, and my gmail for my paypal... no issues because the email is not involved directly with ebay transactions as it just links to what ever paypal account you setup. Email is only used when sending money directly to paypal. This was an ebay transaction so it went directly to the account through Ebay.

I can sell an item and have the payment go to any e-mail I want, so no, it doesn't always work like that. You can change it on the individual item page when selling. Unless that's changed recently.

 
 
Your eBay payments may be directed to the wrong email address for one of the following reasons:

    You have changed your email address in your PayPal account profile and eBay account profile but not in your active eBay listings

    You have listed a new item without changing the pre-filled email address on the listing page

    You have misspelled your email address on the listing page

    You have entered a new email address on your eBay listing but have not added or confirmed this address on your PayPal account

    You are using a third party listing tool which has an incorrect email address.

To correct this, please ensure the email address on your listing has been added and also confirmed on your PayPal account. Alternatively, you can contact your buyer to request they cancel the payment and resend to your correct email address.

To view the email address used in your eBay listing:

    Log in to your eBay account.

    Click My eBay at the top of the page.

    In the ‘Sell’ section, click Sold.

    Find the item and click the item name to go to the item sold page. The email address the payment was sent to will be at the top of the listing.

    If you don’t see the email address here, under ‘Additional Options’, click Sell Similar.

    Go to the section 'Decide how you'd like to be paid'. The email where the payment was sent to will be pre-filled.

If you need further assistance finding the email address to which payment was sent, please contact eBay Customer Support

If you have active listings that contain an incorrect email address, you may need to revise your listing or relist the item to correct this.

Man, forget all this ebay talk.  Who is excited to hear the epic finale of Tyler's fridge saga?  Did the old one get hauled away?  Did he save all those cans of bud to put in the new fridge? PIX PLZ!

 
I think I have it figured out. I called ebay, and they said that when I listed the item, I chose to use my other email as my PP address, which I don't remember doing, but whatever, I'm a noob. So I registered for PP and didn't see anything pending. They said it was because I hadn't "activated" that PP account by adding a card to it. Ok, so I added a card, and now the funds for the item are showing as pending in that account. Once they clear, they said I can just gift it to my regular account.

 
The great PayPal/Ebay crisis has been resolved!
Did you print postage? That will clear your funds the fastest, most clear in 7-10 days but it depends on when the item arrives. Once you've made it a month or two and they review your account, they will likely up your item/money limit for selling and remove the pending process. I've sold a shitload on eBay, it was a pain in the ass to start with.

Yeah I did postage right through ebay and printed the label. Fortunately, now that it's pending on that other account, it also says OK to ship. I was worried I had shipped too early or something. Oh well, it's all resolved now and I'll probably never sell anything else on ebay again because Amazon is a million times easier.

 
Stotch, your story reminds me why I hate selling on eBay.  I'll go with Amazon every time from now on, their fees may be slightly higher but its just such an easier process than eBay.

Lol, matter of opinion. You're likely used to Amazon by now. eBay is horrible at first, but once you get past the first few sells, and get the restrictions gone, it's not too bad. Fees are less (and if you keep a good track record, they're reduced even further). I may be in the minority here, just because Amazon's easier, but I prefer eBay everytime.

 
it actually hasnt given me much value as of late. They missed an opportunity to discount Rogue Legacy. Starting to think they bumped it up to a seeimgingly-random $17 only because there's the PLAY promotion. Kinda makes the promo moot.
never saw it and i check the psn store every week. PS4 PSN store really needs to be better organized.
This is hilarious by the way. "They didn't discount Rogue Legacy!" Then when he gets told they did, he blames it on the store for him missing it.

 
Thats cause that USUK guy is an idiot.

Stotch I always use playstation trophies for guides and help. Never failed me. But if you are playing an uncommon game I know they dont always have guides. Most of the time they do. Love that website.

Normally I would too, but the guides for Ys are absolutely terrible. They tell you a trophy is missable and then tell you "Yeah, if you get all chests you'll get this trophy. By the way, here's the location of ONE chest."

Or for the map: "If you uncover the whole map, which you will do if you're going for all the harvest points and chests, you'll get this trophy."

Oh ok then.

 
Normally I wouldn't have even glanced its way, as I've said I generally only buy things I have a real interest in playing, but my PS4 is still new and shiny and its shelf is terribly empty. Its a one two punch straight to wallet.
Welcome to PS4. It will be a digital shelf.
 
who is this group of people that wants to play bioshock on their iphone? who is the target market here? I literally can't figure it out. maybe they just have some intern working on it or something so it doesn't cost them much. bioshock / bioshock 2 on vita? or remastered for next gen? probably would've been day one for me at this point. ios? what the fuck? who is buying this?
And obviously the teaser they sent out was necessary to get people pissed off excited over the announcement.

 
[quote name="ProfessorStotch" post="11982222" timestamp="1407189175"]Does anyone here sell on ebay? I recently sold something for the first time, and I'm confused. The auction ended Thursday, the dude paid on Friday, and I shipped the item Saturday. He sent me the right amount of funds, and ebay says the payment was received, but it's not in my Paypal. Do I have to wait? What's confusing to me is that I have my Paypal account linked to my ebay account, but they use different email addresses. Ebay keeps sending me messages to my non Paypal email telling me to register for an account and claim my funds. When I look in my ebay account, it says everything is complete and gives me a link to view the paypal transaction...when I do that, it tells me that the transaction ID is invalid. How the hell do I get this money?[/quote]

One note about selling on eBay that you may already know: Your funds can show as "pending" for up to 3 weeks until you get a decent history there. I think I only had to sell like 15 items before my money was available instantly though. I like eBay overall.
 
It's a friendly competition and it's a nice way to see what everyone is playing by looking at the last trophy earned.

Also, way to suck at trophies nubz.
I won't join that list til I get my first platinum and since I'm playing FFX hd that might be another 80 hours which for me might be a few months D:
 
[quote name="Backlog_Overload" post="11982424" timestamp="1407194096"]Oh yeah, another note about eBay: just use the mobile app for posting listings. So much easier, virtually effortless.[/quote]

Yeah, just take a couple pics, select a few options, and you've posted your listing instantly!

Yeah I'm fine with waiting, just as long as I know the funds will come eventually. That's another reason I like Amazon. Once you ship the item, you basically have the funds available to you. So all the stuff I've sold in the past couple weeks, I was able to just transfer that right from Amazon to my bank account, and then I bought Amazon gift cards. I bought some today, and preorded...wait for it...

Disgaea 4 Vita, bitches!

So there wasn't a "noob" period for selling on Amazon? Like was already said, take this plan of action....every 3-4 items you want to sell, throw one of them on eBay. Eventually the restrictions will be gone and you will have instant access to payments just like Amazon.

And you disappoint me so much!

A number of the guides I've checked there don't list collectibles in the roadmap, or don't show all the trophies in play order. They just say "Play through the game normally and don't forget to get the collectibles as you do, because there are trophies for those." That's a pretty pointless guide IMO.

 
Write a guide for Disgaea 4 Vita.
I ain't got that kind of time anymore. I know it seems easy, but guide writing is tough. Especially for that site, since they scrutinize every little thing unless you've written 100 guides for them. I'll just enjoy the game. I might cancel it though, I'm undecided. This Rogue Legacy game seems fun, but I want to see how it plays on Vita before making it my go-to Vita game for the time being. So far the controls are a little frustrating on PS3.

It sounds like on playstation trophies you can just write: get all the trophies. Shouldn't take long.

It's great on Vita, yeah. What're the control issues you're having on PS3? Curious (though you shouldn't have bothered there tbh.)

I feel like sometimes when I push down to activate these platforms or stab something in the head, it doesn't recognize that I'm pushing down. The d-pad seems to work slightly better though.
