I never have any money in my account, when you pay for something they withdraw that amount from your registered account/credit card and use that for payment. As for 7-9 days to transfer money from your paypal to bank account, yes it has taken this long for me every time.

It take only about 5 days to transfer funds in mine bus yes as above. You don't need to transfer any money to your paypal account it is taken from the debit/credit card registered tot he account. The only time you might wanna transfer is when people have give you money and it's kept in your paypal account.

Yes money will go directly from the card within a couple of days. You will have a confirmation email sent. Also one from ebay if your paying from here.

yeah the payment is instant and you get the confirmation emails it's just that sometimes it takes a day or two to show on your bank statement.

The only thing I dislike about paypal and ebay is all the fees when you sell something. fees to list, fees at the end and fees when you receive a payment It's like ebay does you over twice dry 
It's free to send money and pay so it's not bad in that way

If you are paying though make sure settings are on instant bank transfer (which they should be as standard) and not echeque as this is fucking gay and defeats the object of paypal IMO BBC COOP
