I changed my paypal address from js242899@ohiou.edu to johnshawler@gmail.com

I accidentally listed some auctions with my old paypal address.

Some people won my auctions.

They sent me the money to my old address.

I cannot do anything with the money because my bank account is linked to my current address.

I emailed paypal about it and they said my buyers have to request the money back from my old address and sent it to my new address. Is there anything else I can do?

Just asked paypal about this.

They said we could have up to 5 email addresses on the same account. Why not have both *.edu and *.com addresses on the same account?

Yeah, I had someone send payment to my old account, but it was linked to my new account, so the money still went into the correct paypal, I just didn't get a confirmation email, since that probably went to the other one. Did you close the other account out and open a brand new one?

See, the problem is, before I realized I could do that, I went and reopened the js242899@ohiou.edu account. Now it won't let me add it to my gmail account. I'm not sure how to combine them now.
