• Hmmm, the plot thickens.

    The refund isn't actually in my paypal account yet. Its marked as pending until 3rd Feb.

    Definitely not re-refunding until I've actually been refunded.

  • Fucking annoying that, but not suss: when someone refunds the original transaction, PP drag their heels to earn a buck.

    When I've refunded people, I send them the money in a separate transaction to avoid the delay.

  • Can refunds be cancelled by the refunder though?

    I guess I can contact the seller and see if he can cancel the refund instead of me paying again.

    Just had this. Bought some pricey carbon TT bars. Bought from the US for delivery to Norway. SO when you take into account Norwegian customs being slow. It was always going to take a while. I waited the standard DHL 5 weeks. Notified the seller that they hadnt turned up, and they refunded me. Brilliant. Especially as I didnt really want the bars anymore, and was going to have to sell them on locally.

    But Nothing came into my account. I had an offical looking email, and clicking the transaction on Ebay.com showed it as refunded. But I didnt physically have any Money in my account. After a few days it started to freak me out a bit. Then it turned up. How can sending Money take moments, yet refunds take several days. Twats.
