Paypal?

i have sold my very 1st thing on ebay it has been paid into my paypal account now will it go straight back to my bank account or do i have to forward it on?

You'll have to forward it on. Go into Paypal and withdrawl the money.

i think it depends on how you set it up myn does not directly go straight to account i need to manually do this

Congrats on your first sale

so it says it will cost $1 to transfer it to a bank unless i get over $150..should i leave it there while i try and sell more stuff then transfer it?
if i take it now i wont even cover the postage costs! gosh no wonder its called FEEBay

[Daydream Believer]

I'd wait unless you really need it

[feeb]

Leave it there if not you get nothing really!!!

I think you can actually leave it there and spend it from pay pal account on other online things

I usually leave it there until I get a balance over 150...

You COULD do a sneaky... and put some money into your PayPal account from your bank account... so it makes up $150... and then transfer it back over? Can you do this?

i thought of that leasha.. but then we dont have ANY money today.. oh well it just means i am listing more stufff now...rather then later..
also do ebay take fees from that payment? cos the amount was 6.69 and it says what is in there is 6.23(or something like that)

so much for me mowing the lawn and mopping the floor today

You'll have to pay the ebay fee's at the end of the month I think, seperately. I'd leave the money in your paypal account. Your fee's can be paid out of it when it comes time to pay. You can also pay for anything else on the net pretty much & if the money is already in your paypal account it is paid for instantly.

Paypal takes a fee for money going into the account from a sale (that would probably be the missing .46c), and eBay will invoice you and take their listing fee and percentage of sale price later.

Leave it in there and let it build up if you are planning on selling more things. If you were to draw it out you'd pay a fee now and then when it comes time to pay ebay fees you can use that instead of having to find money at the end of the month. It is also quite satisfying to get a nice sum of money too rather than little amounts here and there
