How long does it take for the money to get into my bank account?

I just sold my iPhone on eBay and I checked my bank account to see if the buyer has paid but the money hasn't been put into my account. How long will this usually take? I have my bank account details on my eBay account as I do not have a credit card and they paid with PayPal. How long will it take for the money from their bank account reach into my bank account? Please help because I want to ship this as soon as possible.

You should speak with someone in the store to see how long it will take.

It should take about 2 days, or about 7 days.

Please allow 48 hrs for them to process.

The buyer isn't going to put the money into your bank account. They pay paypal and after 21 days, it's "available" in your account. Then and only then can you transfer the money to your bank account. This is not automatic. You have to initiate the transfer.

BTW, you have to ship BEFORE you have access to the money, not after.

  • Why is the money used to purchase an iPhone from Apple NZ back in my bank account? I recently purchased an iPhone 6 from the NZ Apple online store. It cost $1149 which was taken out immediately.

  • When will PayPal send my money into my account? I've just sold an iPhone over PayPal, I've sent the item this morning, along with the tracking code, and it's on it's way. PayPal said that the funds will be in my account in the next 21 days and that it's pending, due to safety issues. Can that person reverse the payment? I'm worried that I won't get my cash, and they will be left with the item and money and I'll get nothing, the phone was quite expensive.
