None of my payment options are going through

[e.lo]

Bought an item and none of my payment options are going through. Not sure what's up with this, my CC company said nothing is flagged from their end. Resorted to try using paybright but even that isn't working either. (Also tried via paypal)  Please help!

If the seller is very very new, his Paypal account may not yet be active.

If he is Not A Registerd Seller (NARU) he may have been tossed off the site, although that would not prevent him accepting Paypal.

Or again if he is new, he may have attached a misspelled email address to his PP account, or his email address may have been closed.

Have you contacted the seller about this? If nothing else, this tells him you are trying to pay.

Another thought, does he accept Canadian sales? Some US sellers will not take non-US Paypal because it costs them 4.4% in fees instead of 2.9% in fees.

Says he's been on the site since 2005 and he recently sold another item that's a bit more expensive than what I was trying to buy. I ended up calling ebay support and they told me it might be a problem on his end (something about his paypal email address) Asked for an invoice but no reply from him yet..

Have you also contacted him? You can do that through the original listing. Why bother with third parties? In any case, he may be wondering why you have not yet paid. US sellers can open Unpaid Item Disputes after 48 hours, so your time is limited.

I have been trying to by an item at Ebay andmy credit card is not accept.

I have changed the number of my card because I have a new credit card.

What can I do?

First let the seller know that you are trying to pay but are having difficulty.
Then, make sure the number you have registered for your Paypal account is correct, including the expiry date and the CVV number.

Does the seller ship to Canada?

If he does not, he may also have blocked non-US credit cards, which cost him 4.4% in Paypal fees instead of the usual 2.9%.

And even though it appears he has sold recently, that customer may be having problems too.

As a passing thought, if he has not been selling for a while, any payments from customers may be Held as a Buyer Protection. This should not affect you, although your payment may show as Pending on his PP account.
