This is ridiculous! I would rather pay the minuscule extra and go back to the old way with Paypal.
Ebay is charging more and giving less, I hope this company fails and goes out of business.

Another seller who doesn't know how anything works.

I got a green dot account from WallyWorld for ebay and only ebay. It worked okay for me. You can apply for one online and avoid the hustle and flow of going to their store. ☺

It was easy as heck beforehand and now, it's harder. KIS...keep it simple. It ain't rocket science.

"Greatest saturation of commerce"????? Ain't you heard of Amazon?
Amazon stock: $3321 a share
eBay: $60 a share
Looks like that saturation DRIED UP. Sorry.

Once your buyer has paid YOU CAN pay for your shipping label provided you buy it thru eBay shipping. You are given that option. The cost will be deducted from the amount the buyer paid. It pays to read and understand vs listening to others.

If you don't have your checking account linked to Managed Payments eBay/Ayden doesn't have a place to send the net funds and eBay won't let you continue to sell. Your call.
Have been around over 7 decades and one thing for certain is "Time changes everything" and As Lee Iaccoca stated "You can lead, follow or get out of the way". Lee I was the executive in charge of the development of the Ford Mustang 1964 later revived Chrysler Corporation in the 1980 through a joint venture with Mitsubishi.

What's your address? I'll spot you a few bucks until you get paid.

You're making it seem like it is.
Do you know WHY eBay switched to MP?

For an AUCTION SITE as well as worldwide billboard for BIN, yes it is Ebay. Stock price has nothing to do with saturation of market. Look at Ford's low stock price - yet it is one of the 3 largest car makers in the US on an even par with the others (and I love my F-150 in spite of Ford's low stock price!).

You have up 12 listings - am guessing this is more a side hustle for you, not a FT sales gig. (If wrong, only 12 listings is your issue, not waiting to get paid)
Waiting 2-3 days for a payout and being allowed to utilize pending funds for postage is very manageable. Select daily payouts and you'll soon be in a rhythm where a payout occurs every Monday thru Friday.
Good luck. Try not to sweat the small stuffs.

The bottom line is it takes every change a while to settle down and for kinks to be ironed out.
I was switched early '20 and it was taking up to 14 days, then 7 days, then some nightmare glitches causing ridiculous hold times, but by mid '20 things started running smoothly, and now every week without fail (except Public Holidays) my funds go through Tuesday and hit my bank late that night.
I spent a lot of time over here reading and realising the issue's were not mine alone and slowly but surely the stream line was complete.
I had the same knee jerk reaction as many sellers, but I make my living here so just going away was not an option.

Understood. We were invited last fall in Sept and made the switch in Oct and until a week ago, had zero issues at all.
I always left money in Paypal so waiting to get monies initially in transition did not create an issue.
Sorry your transition was bumpy. For some reason, ours was not.

All good in the end and glad to still be here, I had a lot of help mind you from other boardies
That was why the OP (will take 2 days???) made me smile, if only............

It should go down, and something better should take it's place. We should not be sheep. I find this change not for the good.
05-29-2021 06:34 AM
Exactly right, and before it never mattered because of Paypal. Now they want access to bank account, and to take there time in paying. I am surprised so many are in favor of this. Maybe soon they will pay you in Ebay credit?
