just when you thought the most annoying useless piece of paper in the world which takes 5 days to clar couldn't possibly be bettered, or worsened as the case my be

paypal.......(love them) came up with e-cheque.

Basically, its probably because the buyers card details have expired, so instead of instantly debiting the money it has to manually transfer the money which takes the best part of 2 fucking weeks

A PM to ther buyer may make them aware, they may have just forgotten their card has expired, or sitck with e-cheque, you'll get another email when it clears, dont' send anything until you have that email though.......
