I run several sites which accept PayPal as payment. Lately we have noticed that 10-20% of payments are starting to come as "eCheck" payments... What is this about? Where did this come from all of a sudden?
If sender send you money using an echeck then you need to wait for an echeck to be cleared first before sending goods and virtual goods. DON.
Sometimes 8-10 days as well (depends on sender's location IMO). Got such types of payments thats why. DON.
