99% of my buyers pay immediately online. I guess I just didn't have that set as a requirement with PayPal this go-round.

I am guilty of that - I may wait a couple of days until I get a few items together and pay all at once. And I also remember getting the checks in the mail and addressing each package by hand and a bubble mailer cost 49 cents to mail. Some thanks change for the better, some for the worse.

Immediate payment depends on the sales format. Auctions don’t have the option for immediate payment. Would have to be a buy it now which will not belong to the seller until they pay. If they buy and don’t pay the item is still posted and available to others.
