So I read somewhere that Ebay wont transfer my customers payments to my account untill the item is shipped, can anyone verify that, I sell many Items that are delivered by the manufacture or distributor right to the customers door, with No Tracking #. Appreciate any real experience with this. I am waiting for A transfer of funds to My BA acct. Cliff

Managed Payments processes most payments and makes them available for payout in 2 business days. Once the funds move to "available", if you are on the "daily" payout schedule, available funds will be paid out to your bank daily Monday-Friday excluding holidays. If you are on the weekly payout schedule, available funds are paid out on Tuesdays.
Once eBay initiates the payout, it may take 1-5 business days for you to see the money in your bank account depending on how quickly your bank processes incoming ACH payments.
Regardless of any of that, you are still expected to ship your orders within your stated handling time. If you prefer not to ship the item until you actually have the money deposited in your bank, you will need to extend your handling time out long enough to allow for that.

Your payment will begin processing before the item is shipped (so far) with MP.

That is absolutely NOT true. That is likely coming from a poster that isn't even in MP but thinks they know how it works. Unfortunately there is a lot of misinformation out there. Thank you for asking about this before taking it to be the truth.
Ebay's requirement for shipping does NOT change just because you enter MP. Ebay expects sellers to ship within their stated handling time. So if you have a 2 day handling time, you need to ship within that time frame. Now that would mean that the money you have in MP for this shipment is not going to get to your bank account before you actually ship the item but you can have the shipping costs paid my the funds in MP or PP if you chose. That is a seller choice.
Some in MP choose to wait until the money is actually in their bank account before shipping the items. That too is just fine as long as the seller has their handling time appropriately stated on the listings.
Either way is fine, you just need to do what is best for you and your business.
Oh dang. No tracking numbers. That puts you at HIGH risk to lose money as you would have zero seller protection on these orders due to a lack of tracking. Drop shippers can get tracking numbers. You need to speak with your vendors and get them to supply them to you. I'd bet they have them for their records but just aren't sharing them with you, which is wrong. I drop shipped for years and I only recently stopped. My supplier always emailed me that the item shipped and the tracking number was in that email. I then would update Ebay with the tracking number.

Total **bleep**
Yet this part is just asking to get scammed:
"with No Tracking #" Just saying;
No tracking no received,
