Double payment for same auction

Customer did not catch it, so I sent him an email to check on his PayPal.

Two distinct PayPal transaction IDs, but only the later one is associated with eBay sale.

We caught it right away because we match every payment to it's orders before the order is processed

How is this even possible? eBay should prevent checkout for already paid item.

Double payment for same auction

After discussion with eBay developer, it seems that eBay sometimes fails to register payment with the order so it stays unpaid (I seen this happen many times).

This was the first time, when buyer got confused and resent payment.
