It is not ebay holding it, it is paypal. I was told if the buyer had paid me directly, instead of through ebay, this wouldnt be a problem. I asked the woman what buyer in their right mind would do that? They wouldnt be protected.
No, he isnt a first time seller. He hasnt sold in a long time, he has never had a negative on a sale. before the new system, he did get a retalitory negative from a seller, but only one. I was to understand that the reason there was a hold was because of the type of item he sold. I was finally able to get them to add the tracking to the sale. The item is sitting at the buyers post office, he hasnt picked it up yet.
They are telling me now that when he does pick it up, they will release the funds after 3 days unless he leaves possitive feedback, or clicks on release.
What is really messed up is the fact that reguardless of who you talk to, each of them have a different spin on policy. The person last night wouldnt even take the info on the delivery confirmation, the person today was more than happy to help, but still wouldnt release the funds.
