If you sent them with tracking, then as soon as tracking shows delivered, phone Paypal
and they will release your funds.
Otherwise, feedback helps.....or you've got a 21 day hold.
It's for all infrequent sellers, and you haven't sold anything for over a year.
They're just making sure your account has not been hijacked for scam sales - it happens.

And how do you suggest they isolate the 'hacked' accounts?
It's only apparent it's a hijacked account when the red dots come rolling in.
Once you have been selling on a regular basis, then the hold won't apply.
Payment holds for new sellers
If you're a new seller who hasn't established a selling record yet, we might put payments from your buyers on hold. Generally, the funds will be available either:
If the buyer reports a problem with the transaction, we'll place another hold until the issue has been resolved.
You'll become an established seller after:

My friend had to wait 3 WEEKS for a sale's funds to be released! It was her first sale ever, though she's been a buyer (not frequently) since 2006 and has 100% positive feedback of 80-something.
Given you've written it in caps, do you think 3 weeks is more than 21 days?

Tell me again, what legal right do Ebay have to tell Paypal to withhold MY money for an item that I have sold, even after the buyer has taken receipt of it.
"Wonder what will happen if I refuse to pay the final value fee?"
You agreed to their policy of a 21 day hold on your money as a "new" seller, as said before if you can show by tracking/feedback that the item has been delivered you can phone Paypal and your money will be released.
For the second part, if you refuse to pay the FVF's then eBay will close your selling account.
