I told monto that it'll take 3-4 days like paypal says to transfer funds back from my bank account to paypal.
Just a question on this. Is there a different setup in paypal that it takes that long to transfer from a verified bank account? I ask because when I buy something via paypal, the funds are withdrawn from my account the same day, usually within the hour.
Now it does take 3-4 days for me to transfer from Paypal --> my bank, so I am going out on a limb here to say this is really what the hold up is (or was prior to the account being frozen).
Please correct me if I am wrong. Just trying to decipher this thread.

Monto: As for your $270 Western Union payment I ever got that payment sorry.. Money owed to you is $780.00..
There seems to be a discrepancy here.
Monto: If you sent it the $270 through WU, as another poster said, you'll have to get a receipt of your WU transaction that shows he signed for it. I also think (maybe wrong) that if the money has not been picked up as Jforney claims, then you can recall it. However if you sent it and it was picked up and signed for, that should be on the transaction log/receipt and would be proof enough.
Second thing that seems odd to me is why not pay the whole $1050 out of the paypal? I can see if there was only $780 in the paypal account, but if it's tied to a bank or a card, Paypal would just tap the other source.
I'm not pointing fingers, just seems odd to me.
On the flip side: Jforney - if you got the $270, I hope you give it back with the rest.
Another thing that seems odd to me is the withdrawal of paypal funds. Even if buyer 1 pays, then the funds are withdrawn, the money from buyer 2 should be there to payback the individual that did not get the cue. Something weird there too. Again, not pointing fingers, just seems odd to me.
If I were to transfer funds from paypal to my bank, I think I'd notice an extra $1000 to $1500 in the account and before I transferred anything would try to find out what was happening.
I hope there isn't a scam trying to be had by either party, but I'll be wary of either until/if the issue is resolved. From reading, I kind of doubt there was any ill intention on either part and I may very well be naive in thinking that. But I think there were two deals being lined up (the second in case one fell through) and there was some serious miscommunication that led to both buyers paying for the cue. But it does seem odd to me that two payments would be made for the same cue.
I don't know either party but I truly hope it's the case of miscommunication and it will be remedied soon. Good luck to everyone involved.
