I feel really silly because one of my friends told me that e-bay is soooo easy to use and I'm having the hardest time.
Getting signed up was really easy. Listing items was really easy. But two of my items sold and I can't figure out how to get my money. I know I'm smarter than this but I must have some sort of mental block. I didn't have a pay pal account. I specified in my listing that I would accept money orders. And after they sold I even sent an e-mail to the first buyer asking for a money order.
They both paid with pay pal.
Ok then. I sign up with pay pal and go back to my info and it says that one payment has cleared and one hasn't. So I click on the one that has cleared "accept payment" and it shows the money is in my pay pal account.
So far it all seems so simple. But how do I get that money? Am I missing something? I have no idea how to get that money from Pay Pal to my pocket.
(Mods--I hope this is ok. I'm not knocking e-bay or pay pal. The problem clearly resides in my own limited brain power)
