I've been waiting a few days for a refund from a member here and all paypal has is "Pending" for the amount to be refunded. Its been like this for 3-4 days.

How long does a refund normally take?

All the actual "refunds" I've done were instant. (That is if you use the "refund" function inside Paypal).

If he's just sending you money and calling it a refund, it could take up to week to clear the system.

I guess if his account is empty you might have to wait for the funds to come over from his bank which can take 3-4 business days.

Im thinking that might be it. But doesnt the money transfer to paypal instantly? I thought it only took 3-4 days to transfer from PP to the bank.
