Paypal question?

This is really stupid but anyway. I paid for an item that I bought over at ebay via paypal on Wednesday, Jan 4, 2006. I recieve paypal receipt for that the next minute. Payment type: Instant transfer from bank account. I check my bank account right now and the balance is still the same. I know it might take few days to show up but here is important question.
Bank account shows current balance & it also shows available balance. Whenver I make a payment by paypal, the available balance adjusts within few hours. I wonder from where paypal got the money to pay for the item because I know for sure my paypal balance was 0.
 
Expect it to take 3-4 working days to show up in your account when you transfer money from paypal to your account.

The withdrawals will show up immediately.

EDIT: Re-read. Meh..give it a few days.
 
I don't think any of you actually answered his question.

He's asking (and correct me if I'm wrong) since the money doesn't immediately get taken out from his bank account, how or where does paypal get the money to front whatever the OP is buying/paying for?

I think it's because Paypal uses it's own money? I don't know actually.
