On Ebay I bought an item using “credit card” instead of “PayPal”. The card still has the same amount of money?

the card still has the same amount of money on it. So I then contacted the seller and they said to give them the credit card info (I COULD NOT use paypal, because I had TWO debit cards and paypal doesn’t allow using two cards at one time)

They then said the credit card info was “too short”

Hi there,

please call us at:************ and we can take this payment over the phone.
thanks

So I just now called, and no one was there, just an answering machine, so i left a message saying that I was trying to buy an item and gave my username….

So what do I do? Ebay says that I paid for the item (I already confirmed and signed the contract to buy it)

Answer by travelmaster
what you should have done first was to transfer the funds from both cards
into your paypal account
then paid for the item using the money in the paypal account

also this is the weekend they might be closed…
and remember that when buying something on eBay you are buying it from a PERSON
not a company (or EBAY)
