Answer 1

Tiggermo, is correct, this same thing has happened to me, and it is standard and will take a few more days.  All you have to do is contact Paypal in regards to this matter.  Call their toll free number and they will assist you.

Good luck......................

Answer 2

Give it a few days or up to 7. I was given a refund by a person I bought from. They held it for a few days. It was no big deal. I checked  and it was in my account.

Edited: I didn't call anyone. I just waited but I was only waiting on a few $$$s.

Answer 3

Sorry to tell you this but you might be in for the Paypal headache..  This is when paypal puts you through the ringer and you can't get your money back no matter what.  I hope this doesn't happen to you but most people have paypal nightmares and legally there is no action that can be taken against them because paypal isn't a bank!? Legally so most rules don't apply to them.
