High-value payouts on 30-day hold despite 100% delivered status - Need advice

Question

Established seller here with 100% perfect metrics. Recently got a 30-day hold (until Aug 13) on 3 delivered high-value auto parts orders. Tracking shows successfully delivered. Chat support was unhelpful. Any advice on how to get an earlier release?

There is not much you can do if eBay does a 30 day payout hold.

This is stated in the terms and conditions and with your record, lack of sales and your negative feedback, I suspect that eBay has a reason to hold payments for 30 days.

Your "established" history isn't as long or as dependable as you seem to believe.

Based on the number of buyers who've had problems getting their items, I suspect you'll be subject to holds for a while.

Not sure what items you are referring to but the one that you sold for over $1,000 will definitely have a 30 day funds hold on it. eBay a year or so ago decided to hold all funds for sales over $1,000 for 30 days because of bad sellers causing problems. There is no way around this particular hold.
