Default eBay sale and payment question

An auction of mine ended today, in which I sold an electronic device to someone in Vancouver for over 300 dollars. The payment was received by me in my paypal account, and everything seems to be fine there. But when I try to email the person back, to let him know that I will ship tomorrow, no email goes through for some reason, as it comes back as undeliverable.

If I already have the funds in my paypal account, and have already begun the process of withdrawing the money into my bank account, is there any way for me to get screwed over here? I am just a little suspicious as to why his email address isn't working.

Well make sure the money is in your bank account then just mail it off. I dont know about canada but here we can have the person sign for the item so that you know that the product that you sold was signed for and recieved so they cant lie to you.

It says it could take 5-7 days to process the withdrawal into my bank account, so I don't really want to wait that long before shipping. Everything seems kosher, but I'm just a little worried about not being able to send him an email.

OK, I sent him a message via ebay, hopefully he gets back to me.

I also hope the money clears my bank tomorrow, earlier than predicted, so that I don't have to worry at all.

Thanks guys.

The Ebay email is probably all you need to do.

Make sure the registered Ebay name and address match the Paypal name and address exactly. Also make sure that the Transaction details in Paypal shows that it is "OK to ship" and that the Seller Protection says "Eligible". If those things are all good you should be fine.

Hi Everyone,
I'm just looking for a little bit of advice as I have some 1988 Calgary Olympics Souvenir cups like the one in the link below and they are just cluttering up my place so I'm looking to sell them and I'm not sure where to go or what to do with them.

The cups are as I said 1988 Calgary Olympics Cups, there are a few like the link above plus a few other different types, and to be honest I haven't sorted through them yet. I am looking for the wisdom of everyone here to see what I should be asking for these as I figure they are 20 years old and in quite good shape.
if I'm selling these through Ebay any advice on what sort of price I should be looking at and also how would I go about setting up payment for this I do have pay pal but have only used it to pay for items.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I just revived this thread instead of starting a whole new topic
thanks

Did you even bother to read my post? I'm don't know about pricing and you need to post a price in the Buy and Sell Forum, and I'm also just looking for advice on what would be the best way to go about doing it, but thanks for your help
