returning to selling

Hi,

I used to be a regular seller up to 2014 and am contemplating selling again.

I believe one can no longer accept paypal and all payments now go through ebay, how does this work? do they hang on to your money until they know the item has arrived or is there a probationary period before you are trusted.

As when you asked before

https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Selling-on-eBay/I-ve-thought-about-resuming-selling-on-ebay-after-an-8-year/qaq-p/2507660

There have been a massive amount of changes, you really need to read through everything top to bottom, and then read it again, and make sure you have every i dotted, t crossed, highlighted and underlined 100%

The hold is 30 days

But there is a lot, a lot

Payments are via Managed Payments, which you have to fully sign up for and be verified for, which means understanding the requirements, your obligations and making sure you know exactly what is required of you before you even think about listing anything

Have a look at the policies in the link below, particularly "start selling", "Start getting paid" and "registering as a seller"

These are the same answers you were given when you asked a couple of months ago.

Did you read them then?

That is a rhetorical question surely, daydreams. Maybe the OP thinks that asking the same question every few months will give different answers. Which is possible, if eBay change their policies. In which case, the OP is asking other members to do their research for them.
