Paid for item, but Seller shut down his shop! I Beg of you! please help me!

 

Please help me! i beg of you!

 

i have already paid for an item using PAYPAL (full payment)

 

 

but the seller has sent me a Private Message on Ebay, asking for me to pay him extra money

 

 

so i refused

 


because I have already paid the full amount with paypal!

 

 

a few hours ago, i noticed that the seller has shut down his shop

 

he has also removed all his listings

 

 

oh my lord.....is he trying to get away?

 


my concern:

 

 

(1) he's going to the bank right now to withdraw the money i paid him, what should i do to stop that?

 

 

(2) should i open a case on paypal RIGHT NOW? will that stop him from withdrawing the money?

 

 

 

Please help me, i beg of you!

How did you fund your payment?  If you paid through your bank account it's going to be on hold for several days.  Is that time up?

 



Not necessarily. If the buyer paid with an "Instant Payment", the seller will see the money right away. However, if buyer paid with an echeque, then, it will be hold for several days.

 

Since the OP paid with a credit card, none of that matters, but I just wanted to clarify things just in case another buyer is reading this 😉
