Default Paypal Payment Holds

I have been a seller on ebay for 4 months. I have had payment holds for the first two months, and then paypal stopped the 21 day holds. I have 95 feedback now, 100% positive, my DSRs are 4.92, 4.97, 4.97, 5.00. My Policy Compliance is High (good), I am paypal verified, and i pay all my fees before they are invoiced. I only sell shoes and only had 1 opened case against me, And now, paypal just hit me again with the 21 day payment hold. I thought once youve had payment holds, they go away forever unless you do something wrong?

I just got hit with them as well.
I think any little hitch in your sales and they hit you with it. Especially with the holidays around the corner, I guess that they want to be safe.

My hold notices do not even include positive feedback anymore, just ' 3 days after conformation of delivery' or after 7 days after the item was delivered. Which makes no sense but...oh well. As long as they release my money.

They also have the 'estimated payment release date' on my ebay pages.

The paypal hold policy comes and goes on your account as you make more sales even if you have a long time account. You have to be a corporation like amazon or something for them not to have a single hold on your account I think. If they put holds for those accounts also then paypal just sucks totally!

the payment holds are there to protect pay pal's interests

so if your selling high risk items,that can be a reason for the holds

if your sales suddenly rise, if your performance drops

if you have a case opened against you that can cause them to act and put you back on the holds

basically, make them nervous and you will get the holds

it's a trust thing, earn there trust and you get the benefits, lose the trust and you get them took away

you gotta play the game, and play it well!

Just to let everyone know I have an account that is almost 2 years old.

I sell 5-10 items per month on it ( no risky items at all ) and have all 5.0 DSRs across the board.

100% feedback.

I listed a couple things a few days ago and when they were paid for I went to the pp site and here it comes, from now on your fund will be held.

I was using this account as a aging type account trying to get both time and good fb-dsr buildup for the future.

The account that I thought would never get a hold just got one. So be prepared.

Fully verified with not a single problem on the account.
