Twice now I have had the same 0 feedback buyer place an order in my store where
they are somehow able to get the order to 'READY' status with a status
of 'PAID' but they never actually paid. There is a language barrier
between us so I have no idea what they are doing to reach this point.

If somebody goes offsite to pay on paypal, does bricklink just presume it was
paid, regardless of what happens on the paypal site?

Each time I have reset the status to not paid, and the buyer has no way to pay
(or cannot figure out how to pay.).

Any advice besides cancelling and stop listing? They seem to really want these
10 parts.

It's the buyer who marks it as paid.

Put manually as unpaid and start a NPB after 5 days. Explain the situation in
the comment section.
