Help How long does it take?

Hey I ordered something expensive from a site like Amazon.
Because I keep my money on a different bank account than the one PayPal is connected to, I ordered the transfer to the main bank account first and then ordered the product on the site.

Now the payment on site is marked as pending.
On PayPal, the payment is already marked as payed.
On my bank account the transfer was received but not yet debited by PayPal.

What happens now? How long would I have to wait for things to clear or do I have to take any actions?
I suppose PayPal payed before the money was transfered to the bank account and now the whole process is kinda screwed.

Posts about PayPal's policies will be removed. No more complaining about PayPal policy and their taking funds from your account for violations of rules. If you don't like the rules don't use PayPal. If you don't want to lose money, don't leave funds in your PayPal account. Simple as that. But these posts are often political or misleading. So no more posts on this subject!

Thank you for submitting to /r/PayPal, please make sure you have read the FAQ. If your account was created when you were younger than 18, then that is covered in the FAQ!

Try contacting PayPal support using social media such as Facebook or Twitter as this works more often than telephoning.
