Will PayPal overdraw my bank account if I try to use PayPal to send money? I recently had an Amazon purchase bounce and at this moment have no way of checking for myself short of going to the bank, so I'm afraid that a recent payment I've made with PayPal has overdrawn my bank account

Depends if your bank declines the payment or not, if it declines then paypal will try again a few days later and if that is declined again they may put your account balance into negative or try your back up card if you have one linked.
If its not declined by your bank then you may get overdrawn.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.
