Getting paid.

[vladgman27]

Hi. I have had an account with ebay since 2000. I just sold an item a few days ago. I just received an email from ebay telling the buyer has paid for the item. I read further in the email that Ebay is holding my money until item is received. I have never heard of this before. I have sold items in the past without this hold onto funds. Can someone shed light on this. Thanks in advance.

Payment holds aren’t new on eBay but their scope has broadened with the advent of Managed Payments. As you haven’t sold anything on eBay for a while, you will be subject to a hold on your payout to ensure the integrity of your account. It’s not personal, it’s business and security.

You are set-up to accept payouts through the new Managed Payments set-up, right?
