Exorbitant fees and getting paid

I am sick of Ebay. When an item was sold before, payment was immediately available in my Paypal account. My last sale was 3 days ago and although the buyer paid right away I still don't have the money. The fees surprised me as they are outrageous at around 12%+. I have been a member since 2002 and have 1120 100% positive feedback. I cannot make any money here anymore and will be shutting my account down permanently. Disgusting.

@emeraldforest,

 

Because your funds have to be transferred from Holland using ACH.  None are made after 6pm your time, or on weekends and national holidays.  You paid 12.9% using PayPal so if you only paid 12% for this transaction you're a little ahead.  My last transaction fee was 13+%

I changed my username in honor of this thread, and walking away also.  The trend continues for people to seek alternatives.
