Paypal Account Required Message

Well for a running listing, you'll have to revise it through eBay to remove that. For your next listings, make sure the "require immediate payment" option is un-checked in the "Checkout Options" of the one-page lister.

Thanks for the advice - but I tried that. Un-checked in all areas on ebay revised and Auctiva, but still showing 'Paypal Account Required' under the price of the listing. It's putting me off listing any more until I can get rid of it! Any more suggestions???

I'm sure it is some kind of an ebay glitch, but sometimes the only way around those glitches is to "sell similar". In other words, click on the sell similar button, create a new duplicate listing edited the way you want it, and then end the original listing. I've had to do this several times. Ebay is becoming more and more difficult to use.

Hello Sandbagsragsnriches, (that spelt right?)

The only thing I can think to check is:

Goto eBay Homepage and sign in

Click on 'My eBay' tab

Under My Account on the left side and towards the bottom click on 'Preferences'

Under the heading 'Selling Preferences' find 'Buyer Requirements' and click 'SHOW'

Now click the 'edit' button that is now under 'Hide'

Down at the bottom of this screen be sure there is no check mark in 'Buyers without a PayPal account'.

If this option is checked, it shows a 'PayPal required' message below your pricing.

You can still accept PayPal it just won't block users without a PayPal account from bidding on your items. Great if you take other forms of payment obviously.

Happy Bidding!

Best regards,

Hi Tim

Thanks for your suggestion - done that! Un-checked 'Buyers without a Paypal account' still not removed from my listing! Tried re-booting, revising listing again - all un-checked! Never had this problem before with any listings within ebay. Must be something in my Auctiva account - but everything has been checked from the other ideas. I'm going to try listing another item and see if it happens again. Annoying that it won't come off my listing though: 350024343664

I've now listed a new item and it's not got that message on it thankfully. Still can't get rid of it on the 1st item though - must be an ebay glitch like rustyfarmall suggested. Thanks everyone - Onwards & Upwards now!

Actually, it COULD be a setting in Paypal...I want my auctions to be PP only and I remember having to set it up in the PP site too....
