I have an issue with receiving payment for an idem I sold on eBay ?

I'm new to eBay and I didn't realize that I did not  have the correct PayPal account to receive payment for the item I listed. The guy told me he sent me the payment but it still says on eBay the item has not been payed for. How do I receive payment in this situation?

Don't send anything until you get confirmed payment via ebay & paypal.

1.  Sign into Paypal.  Is anything there?  If yes, upgrade to take credit or accept or whatever.  Note if Paypal shows the money is pending, do nothing.  Your buyer paid with a transfer from their bank account and Paypal wants to make sure they get the money.  This transfer can take a week.

2.  If not in Paypal, check auction to see what email address you used.  You may have to pretend to sell again, just don't list.  I made a typo once.  Sinve I couldn't create a valid email for the typo, buyers had to cancel payment.  Otherwise at 30 days of not being claimed, it will refund.
