I've been using Paypal since it started and eBay since 2000 and I've either been lucky or this is a recent policy. In the last week or so, I've received eChecks for "Buy It Now" eBay listings that have a requirement for "Immediate Payment" through Paypal. I don't remember this happening before but it negates the whole concept of "Immediate Payment" because eChecks take days to clear and the last one is from Canada and promises clearance in 8-10 days. This makes no sense at all so I canceled this last eCheck but eBay wants me to send the buyer an Invoice creating even more confusion as I have now had to send the buyer a request to cancel the auction leaving me at their mercy. I can't relist the Item and I am now probably open to a negative feedback. Please someone explain. BINs cost extra money and I use them for cash flow while I am waiting for other auctions to end and regular payments to come through. What is going on?
