whats all this fuss about paypal reserve?

[bart]

hello,
i havent been doing ebay for a long time, since probably jan or feb since my account got suspended, i got really pissed off at ebay and i stopped selling...i was selling a little on craigslist but damn its not ebay man, you know what i mean? its so difficult to sell, you got people not showing up, making false promises, wasting your time, i am just tired of it and want to start selling on ebay again. but i hear things have changed, is that true? whats the paypal reserve thing? do they hold 30% of your money or something? how do you survive if they hold your money like that? is it for all sellers or just some? what about ebay? is everything the same as January?

Don't give a heart attck with 30% LOL. I'll go broke if that happens Here's the thread that discussed it earlier

Let me fill you in on a few details. Not all paypal accounts get money kept in reserve. There is a bit of a variation in the amounts held. If the account operates in good standing, it may not happen. But I add, as always, tis naffin' paypal so expect the worst.
