Wyntersun Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Hi guys, I have just sold my iphone on ebay. The buyer paid with paypay through ebay strait away. Had an email from paypal, saying that I have received funds, and that they will be holding the money in my account for up to 21 days before they can allow me to withdraw it to my back account. "The money from your payments will be held temporarily for up to 21 days. After this time you'll be able to access the full amount and withdraw your money. When will we release the payment? You'll be able to access your money after 21 days, providing your buyer hasn't reported any problems. You may be able to access your money sooner if we can confirm that the item was delivered or, if this is an eBay item, your buyer leaves you positive feedback." Its been awhile since I have sold items on ebay, usually buying stuff. Is this normal this 21 days thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supspower Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Its because you dont have a good enough rating on ebay i think i.e havent sold many things on there. Same thing happened to me when i sold something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konrad Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Is your paypal connected to your bank account or credit card? It might be that if it is not connected to your bank account they want to make sure you will not pump out money before buyer have a chance to leave feedback.
