    My eBay account is still linked with my PayPal account. Not sure why this would be different for you, although I've never actually sold anything on eBay, just bought stuff, but rarely, and not recently. 🤔
    Alea jacta est!

    Ebay split with Paypal several years ago but the two companies continued working together for a five year period. That collaboration agreement expired last year. I rarely purchase things on Ebay but they still allow multiple forms of payment including Paypal. It's sellers on Ebay who need to work through Ebay for listing items and receiving payment now instead of Paypal. I haven't sold anything there for years because of their ridiculously high fees and lack of standing behind people selling items.

    Yes you now have to have a bank account linked: I don’t like it, but I happen to have our old bank account still open for a couple auto drafts that i didn’t feel like switching years ago when we changed banks. So I’ll just use that account and won’t leave much in it.

    For audio I far prefer selling here or audiogon, but there on things you can basically only sell on eBay, like older iphones and tablets. So I keep my sellers account open.

    It's been years but I linked a credit card to pay my fees on ebay. I still pay with PP through ebay for all purchasing, and that was still available yesterday.
