Hello, As a first time seller I understand there are holds. Should i expect to be waiting the full 21 days? Item was delivered 2 days ago. Just hate having over 1000$ sitting there for weeks..

You are right, it can vary. But there are a few things they take into consideration when making these exceptions. One of the big ones is how much the sale was worth. But it can't hurt to ask if the item is delivered.

Did you read the policy?

Yes, was wondering from peoples experience. Policy can be different than reality!

Be more specific. Which policy or policies are different than published?

It says new sellers may experience holds of up to 21 days. This implies it can be less from what i read alot of people said 3 days after delivery is confirmed. Was wondering if that was accurate and i can expect it available soon, or if itll be available at the 21 days mark.

I hope everything works out well for you. Welcome to Ebay. Have a wonderful Holiday Season.

I have been on eBay with the same account for 21 years with 100% feedback the entire time for over 700 transactions, never a dispute, and I had a 'funds hold' for an item I recently sold.
What a slap in the face that was for me. Obviously, the feedback numbers don't mean anything to eBay.
If I had been notified of the hold before I pressed the 'list it' button, I would have cancelled the auction and listed it somewhere else.
I will never sell, or buy anything else on eBay again.

It isn't based on your history with Ebay as a seller other than how long it has been since your last sale on Ebay.
I wish you well on whatever you decide to do.
