Open a new checking account. Transfer PP money into new account. Transfer from new account to existing account. Deliver car,
If they're doing any amount of PP transactions - ebay, online selling, etc, - I would recommend a dedicated account with not much kept in it for that anyway. PP has no problem taking your money from a linked account if they think they have a good reason.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.

, but is concerned about "buyer's remorse" and having the $ taken back.
Would you sell a car this way? Nope, Nope and NOPE deposit maybe. But full payment, NO

Wire transfer is the safest way to go.
It really doesn't matter whether you win or lose… as long as you look good doing it!

$250 Yes $2,500 Maybe $25,000 No! The seller will pay 2.9% so $275.
I have a Chase account just for my PayPal. I keep $250 there so I can buy most things off Ebay. But a few times I've sold something and got $1500 or so, I went that day and drew all but $250 out. This Chase account is not tied to any of my other banks/credit unions. So kind of 'Sandbox'.

He may be using pay-pal credit which can be higher amount. Payments via PP may not "clear" on your account right away. Always need to be sure of that when selling/shipping via PP payments. You only know if it's "cleared" when you can withdraw/spend or transfer it. Otherwise it's spending

Make em use pay pal friends and family or cash. A used car is sold As-Is with no warranty by you so no need to spend %3 of your money giving them a "warranty" through pay pal. The way I look at it is I only set up my pal pal for the buyers convenience, if I feel some reason to give them a gaurantee of some sort it will not be through PP, if they are not OK with all that then they are a shaky buyer and you don't want to sell to them anyhow.
