Ebay paypal question?

I have some money in my Paypal account and added some more but it usually takes at least five or more days for the money from my bank account to transfer to my Paypal. If I was to make a purchase on Ebay using my Paypal, but didn't have enough in my Paypal yet (but would when the money finished transferring to my Paypal), can I still make the Ebay purchase before the money is done transferring to my Paypal? Would the transaction go through? Would it say something to the Ebay seller like that the money was pending or transferring, etc.? Help?

    Once you pay for the purchase PayPal attempts to take the money from your PayPal account first. If there is not enough money there they will then draw it from your bank/credit card. Money that is being transferred will have no effect.
