Hi -

I'm a little new on the block and am feeling my way through AuctionWatch & AuctionManager.

I have just successfuly completed my first auction through Auction Manager and have a bidder who has now paid -- ahhh!

Since I am also new to Paypal, I'm wondering how to link my Paypal "ID" into AuctionWatch.

On my global preferences page in AuctionWatch, just what serves as my "ID" in Paypal? Is it my primary e-mail address?

I'm a little unsure what to enter.

Thanks in advance!

- Ray Birks

Hi RayBirks,

The User ID would be the email address that you used when you registered with PayPal.

Thanks for your reply. Now a complication:

I have since added a second e-mail address to my Paypal account. Further, I have made that address 'primary' for Paypal. (I prefer my business address to be my primary address there.)

When I arrive at my Paypal log-in screen, the new primary e-mail address is the default (so all I need to do is enter my password.)

To establish the link from Auction Manager into Paypal, should I continue to use my original Paypal e-mail address, or would I now use my newly primary Paypal e-mail address? Or perhaps either address (once confirmed) would work??

Thanks once again in advance.

Hi Raybirks,

I am not sure what you mean by "link from Auction Manager". Do you mean the link in your auction that PayPal adds?

My question is the link (well, I assume it's a link of some kind) in my Seller Preferences.

When I go to:

My Account -
Seller Preferences -
Global Preferences -
Payment Types Accepted

where I have checked the "Paypal" box as one of my accepted payment methods, there is an "ID:" box where I am supposed to enter my identifier at Paypal in the form of a verified e-mail address.

My assumption is that, once this "link" is entered and established, Paypal will notify me at AuctionWatch that payment has been received and will then automatically check-mark the payment received box in my post sale list of WBN items.

The Paypal payments I receive seem not to be registering automatically, which I was assuming they would if I entered the "proper" ID number for my Paypal account.

So, I'm assuming I've done something wrong, since Paypal payment notifications don't come in automatically. (I receive e-mail notification from Paypal, and then I have been check-marking the "payment received" in my post sale section.

So, if I use my *original* Paypal ID, will that enable automatic check-marking of any Paypal payments I receive?

Phew - hope that makes sense.

Hi Raybirks,

Actually, the payment received box will not be checked by PayPal. That box will always need to be checked manually. There is not automatic feature with payment received.

It doesn't matter which email address for your PayPal account you use, as long as it is valid and in your PayPal account.
