Ebay refund help please? bank or/and paypal?

Question

Last night I have just issued a refund through pay pal. So my question as well as the seller's (both of us are new to eBay) is

how do the seller recieve the refund?

does it automatically go to the seller's bank account? How long will it take?

The seller claims he did not recieve any type of payment (refund). I am not sure how he payed (bank card or pay pal). So if i issued the refund does it go straight to his bank account if thats the way he payed?

Answer 1

The refund $ will go into the persons paypal account within 24 hours after the refund transaction

they can transfer it to their bank account in a few days
