Getting paid for an item that was picked up
A buyer picked up an item I sold last week and the money is still 'on hold', even though she has left positive feedback and happy to do everything she can to confirm all is good.
The funds just say 'on hold until 22 Feb' even though they show as delivered
Thanks

·3 years agoThe same thing is happening to me right now, did you resolve the issue to get paid earlier or did you just have to wait till the release date?

·3 years agoYou may have trouble getting it early even if they leave positive feedback and you get a nice Ebay rep. With a negative feedback for non delivery I would hope they would make you wait.

·3 years agoThat is correct
You are seen as a new seller by eBay, and as such, like everyone, your funds will be on hold for 30 days
Unlikely one positive feedback will get your funds released early, but you could contact eBay and you might get very very lucky
Hopefully you read up on all the other changes that have happened since you last sold something
There have been a lot, and if you were not expecting your funds would be held (as they would have been even if you posted the item with tracking), you'll need to make sure there is nothing else you missed

OP3 years agoHi, thanks for the feedback. So I just need to wait? (nothing else to do?)
Kind regards

·3 years agoAs I mentioned, you could contact eBay and *ask* if they will consider releasing the funds earlier
*IF* you get a nice rep, they may 'do you a favour'
But very unlikely for just one positive and no tracking
