sold item now other buyers want to buy it

Why are you yelling at another member?

You have been answered already as to why your funds are on hold

Once again

eBay consider a new seller

Your funds are on hold for 30 days because eBay consider you a new seller

The same rule/policy applies to all sellers considered new sellers 

That is how it is

You don't want to take any notice of what over members have tried to explain to you, we are giving you factual answers, based on real eBay policy. Which you agreed to when you started selling again by but you are not going to get a different answer if you keep asking the same thing

It does not matter how often/how much you sold a year ago or more

Has your ID been validated as required?

Has your bank account been validated as required?

Are you aware of eBay’s hold on payments for “new” sellers? (That includes casual sellers or sellers who’ve not sold for a while.)

Thank you so much for your reply sandypebbles. Though I was only typing, not yelling at another member? 

[rosssurf]

Yes countessalmirena in answer to your two questions regarding ID and bank account being validated. Those requirements has both been approved by eBay. Regarding the hold on 'new' sellers, I haven't used eBay for qhite a while for either buying or selling. Thank you for your time

The money will be transferred to your bank account on the nominated date in your seller hub.

Since you confirm that everything has been validated, there should be no further issues, other than simply waiting for the due date to roll around. Just bear in mind that once the transfer has been made, it may take several business days to show up in your bank, depending on who you are with.

[countessalmirena]

With all being validated, it’s only the issue of the new seller hold.

It’s frustrating, I know… but if you are able to sell regularly so that you’re no longer considered a new seller, the hold will no longer be implemented.

(Bear in mind that if you take a selling hiatus of a few months, eBay will again see you as a “new seller”. So… try to sell consistently if you can.)

Quite honestly - how would you ' know ' - not being a seller.

Perhaps if the OP went to Live Chat - both the buyer & seller have left +++++feedback - the funds could be released.

Frustration with lack of immediate funds or because of very slow payment isn’t unique to being or not being a seller on eBay.

Knowledge of eBay’s policies lets me offer advice on these boards without spouting rubbish or self-defeating inaccuracies, though. (New sellers who haven't kept up with the policy changes continue to express astonishment with the Managed Payments changes!) I’m glad that I can help (when and if I can); in the past I received help from others on the boards, for which I will always be extremely grateful.

This is totally the frustration of the seller in this instance.

When has ' rubbish or self defeating inaccuracies ' - been offered by experienced sellers.??

(New sellers who haven't kept up with the policy changes continue to express astonishment with the Managed Payments changes!)

This is always pointed out by experienced sellers here - on this board - and advice given on how to validate one's SELLING account - if not already achieved.

But the help you have received - has nothing to do with selling - simply because - you are not a seller.

As a general statement: any poster coming here for help is able to ignore any advice, comment or recommendation on these boards.

It is not necessary to be a seller to post in the Selling board. It's not even necessary to be a seller to post in reply to a seller question. It's only necessary to be courteous, on topic, and an eBay member. We can agree to disagree, and I'm doing that now.

The best advice is the advice that works, not who gives the advice.

Sometimes the wording of advice works for one person, while the wording doesn't work for another. Anyone who's ever taught anything will have come across this phenomenon.

My apologies to the OP; the thread has gone a little off course.
