Been buying and selling on Ebay since the late 90's. Bught for years (a bunch) and started selling after Hurricane Katrina. Ebay-PayPal combination was great . Fantastic CS agents. Left when Ebay-Paypal split mess. Came back and bought alot everyday and started selling. Still a good platform until the 2000 teens. Started holding funds for no reason. Stop selling and got on Ebay funding which was great for a while. Started selling again and here come the "funds on hold" scenario and no explanation given but that I was a new seller. Told them I was not and they advised if you have not sold in 6mos, you are considered a new seller. Asked about the 20 years and over 100K in buying-selling. Told me that it made no difference. Wow, such loyalty-one way that is. Listed some items several months ago after the economy tanked and they stayed on for months with no sales. Lister some again and they have finally started selling. Sold one item last week and had express payout. Sold another yesterday and I started to ship today and I noticed funds were on hold. Called CS and agent said that it was because I had not sold anything since 6/24. Well, the economy was not good. So, all of this propaganda they say to you about "customer loyalty" is just hype. Same bank, same address, 100% positive feedback since day one in the 90's, buying constantly and this is the great respect they show their loyal customers. Enough of this insanity with the Ebay bunch. Hopefully they will not send their security to my home and leave naughty things on my porch like they got charged with and paid a hefty fine. LOL
