Hello :
I'm Unable to Check off the Option "Require immediate payment with Buy It Now" in an ebay auction. When I check off this option in ebay it gives me the error message "The email address you entered isn't linked to a PayPal account. If you don't have a PayPal account, you'll need to set one up with this email address so that buyers can pay you". However, the paypal account is "linked" and in good order. I'm being told by ebay that I need a "Paypal Business Account" for this to work. I don't think this is correct since I currently do have a business account. This worked fine up until I had to change my email address and created a new paypal account. I see others have had this problem too, but no listed solutions. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Did you change your email address on your LISTINGS after you changed your email address.
Go to ebay and click on 'sell' put in anything (as you aren't going to actually list anything) until you get to the main page > scroll down near the bottom and where it says payment methods check the email address that is on that page, is there a spelling mistake or old one?
