Exclamation Need some advice on 21 day holds and VCC on Paypal

Hey again everyone, I'm looking for some advice.

I'm currently selling digital products on eBay (yes I know I'm really not suppose to). I've had in the last day 27 payments of $9.99 received, 15 of which received the 21 day hold. The paypal account I'm using is 5 years old and I haven't received this many consecutive 21 day holds in such a short amount of time. (I've had zero claims filed and all of my customers have been happy). I do however have a claim open against a seller for $19.99.

Is this a sign I should stop using that paypal account for maybe a few weeks and let it "cool off"? Obviously paypal suspects something and is watching the account, so I'm thinking if I stop running so much money through it and let it sit for a few weeks they would lay off. Do you guys think that would help the situation?

My second question is, I just linked a Gift 2 Go visa gift card to another paypal account of mine. They want me to verify the gift card by supplying the 4 digit code. My problem is, when I go to gift2go.net and check the balance it only lists the following:

"8/23/2008 5:38 PM Purchase PAYPAL INC 402-935-7733 US -1.95"

The only possible 4 digit code I see in that is "7733", turns out that is actually a phone number for Paypal. How do I obtain the 4 digit code? I normally use simon gift cards and have had no problems in the past obtaining the code.

Also, what would be the cheapest way to ship out a CD containing the download link for my digital item. Normally I've just been patient with the 21 day hold and let it run out until the money is free, after which paypal stops giving me problems.

Thanks for viewing!
