If you mean how long before you can access your money in paypal:   read this:

 

Based on your postage method and information you provide us, funds that are temporarily placed on hold should be available:

  • 7 days after your latest estimated delivery date when you manually upload tracking information or mark the item as posted in My eBay.
  • 21 days after your buyer pays if you don't upload tracking and you don't mark your item as sent in My eBay.

Regardless of how you choose to post, please keep in mind that your funds may be further delayed if your buyer reports a problem with the transaction.

You might need to be a bit more specific.

I'm assuming you are asking why a payment is still pending?

 

Either the buyers payment is pending (echeque), in which case, you look like you sent the item before payment cleared?

 

Or the payment is being held by PayPal. Which they do for some sellers with little selling history for 21 days, you need to contact them and have them release it.

If you provide a little more information, I'm sure someone can help you out.

And it looks like people jumped in before I finished my post Smiley Happy

 

If you ring PayPal and demand they release your money, they usually do.
