When I tried to make an onsite payment through PayPal, it keeps saying: (I tried
it several times yesterday and today)

"PayPal error
We encountered PayPal API error while processing your payment. Please check your
order or payment status and try it again."

Does anyone have the same problem? I was told it was not the problem of PayPal,
but the problem of Bricklink. So what should I do? Thanks.

Happens now and then, I had that a few weeks ago. I waited until morning and
tried again, it went through just fine. There's something between Paypal
and Bricklink that is getting broken.

Same thing is happening to me today...Never happened and today I can't make
any payments to the Bricklink stores because Paypal is blocking my payment with
the message "We encountered PayPal API error while processing your payment".
I'll try again tomorrow hoping it works
