David,
I did some digging. PayPal will hold a seller's money for several reasons:
https://www.paypal.com/us/brc/articl...s-availability
The hold has nothing to do with my funds not being sufficient.
I buy a lot of lizards and I do not remember all the seller's names.
This whole thing seems to be a misunderstanding. With that said, the last time you contacted me was directly via email and I never saw two aliases. I hope you understand when a buyer sees two (or more) names, that usually raises red flags. Best,
-Kit

I am not used to paypal holding the money like that. So to be better safe than sorry I used the refund option. Usually when paid through paypal the funds are immediately available. I thought maybe paypal is holding it because you didnt have sufficient funds.

You could have asked lol
So what is your name?
David or Daniel?

Recently I've received payment through paypal and they've put the funds on hold for 21days. Luckily those were on payment plans so I received the funds before the animal was shipped and had the rest of the funds paid outside of paypal. They say if you ship sooner you will get your money released sooner. Honestly i believe the seller was just trying to protect himself from a buyer. Why would he refund you if he was a scammer

I don't see any evidence of a scam, it sounds like a misunderstanding.

So is it Daniel Gonzalez or David Ramos?

Not sure how much Paypal experience the seller has if he's never encountered Paypal holding funds before... when I sell stuff on eBay, Paypal definitely explains in their email how long the funds are being held for, and why. There's nothing to indicate that the buyer had insufficient funds.

Can you post exactly what was said?

Conclusion: likely a scammer.

Seller is not a scammer,basically he told you with the refund that he does not want to do business with you.

A blessing in disguise. If someone asked me to confirm my receipt of critters prior to them even being shipped, I'd cancel the transaction and run the other way.
