Why does it take so long for a payout

I’ve sold an item, buyer has paid, item shipped, tracking provided, item received by buyer. Feedback left now Ebay is now telling me funds won’t be released for another 12 days????? 
is this normal?

Why does it take so long for a payout

@barbarayap 

On this ID you haven't sold anything for over a year. That makes you a new seller in eBay's eyes. They don't look at past experience but current. Payment holds are placed only for new sellers. Once you re-establish yourself as a reliable seller you will see your restrictions lifted like everyone else's. Just takes a bit more time is all. Best of luck to you....

Yes, it's normal for new sellers and returning sellers that haven't sold in awhile.

Have a great day.

Why not pay the seller once the buyer receives their purchase and feedback has been given?

What happened to great sellers using their reputation... Does that still mean anything to ebay ?
