Payments on hold
Less of a question and more venting over stupid and illogical eBay policies. I’ve had an account for 20+ years, bought and sold a lot, yet funds for items I sell get held for days or weeks pending delivery. I don’t really need the funds, it’s more the principle of the policy and lack of clarity on the seller dashboard where it doesn’t explain what specifically is causing the funds to be held. Over the years, I’ve become more and more disappointed with the eBay experience, and lately seeing the fees continue to rise and no new features, service, additional value being delivered.

Mentor8 months agoIt appears that you have not sold in a while.
According to Ebay: New or infrequent sellers will experience transaction holds while eBay confirms that their items have been successfully delivered. This helps sellers become established and build a strong selling history on eBay. In limited circumstances, new sellers may experience holds for up to 21 days.

Mentor8 months agoRegardless of how long you have been selling, you only have 4 active listings at the moment, and only 1 sale in the past 90 days. Therefore, ebay considers you an infrequent seller, and with that comes holds on payouts, up to 30 days depending on the price of the item and the tracking showing Delivered.
