Default International PayPal transfer ?

I've sold an item on Ebay and despite putting "Will not ship outside UK" someone from Germany has won the auction.

Initially the buyer was reasonably responsive when I asked about how they were to pay. However it sold on Sunday and until now I've had no money in my PayPal a/c. I've sent them another message stating that

"Please confirm today (21/0307) that you are going to pay for this item and that you are a genuine buyer.

Unless I hear from you I will take this up with Ebay as none payment of item. "

Anyone any ideas how long it should take for PayPal UK to receive the cash ?
(presuming they've paid ~ which they haven't confirmed yet)

Forget them and offer the item to the 2nd highest bidder (assuming they're in the uk).

Will give until this time tomorrow. Then I think I've given reasonable time / notice etc (as per eBay)

Buyer has just contacted me, saying that they've paid PayPal. Let's see what happens next.

Shouldnt be a problem, i use paypal quite often, in Germany paypal works a little different, if he/she is a verified paypal user the money should be on you paypal account within seconds via direct debit from a bank account. It doesnt make a difference if they have a debit card or not. If they dont have this status, (paypal has to have been used atleast 3 times using a bank transfer) then they will have to transfer the money first from their standard bank account, that may take upto 3 working days.
