How do I mark my item as paid?

If you pay for your item using PayPal, or the seller marks the item as "Payment received," the item's status will show as "Payment sent." However, sometimes you may want or need to update the item's status yourself.

To mark an item as paid:

  1. Go to My eBay.

  2. In the left column, click the Purchase History link.

  3. Select Mark as Payment Sent from the drop-down menu in the Actions column. The $ icon turns blue, showing that payment was made.

Manually marking the item as paid doesn't notify the seller that you've paid.
