If anyone has any suggestions and would be willing to PM some help in regards to what I may be able to do, it would be greatly appreciated..

It depends on what your saleing like if u sale a old flower vase and knick knack of some sort or any thing of that nature ur more and likely not going to get a hold on any of the payments but if u sale Dvds Pc games Ps3's high $ hand bags or any VeRO items you will get a hold every time.

I got it the day after I made my last post in this topic. Gee would you believe the new crap they come up with

Just roll with it

Yea, its not that bad, you might even offer express shipping on your items so it gets there faster and you get your money released faster. Just call paypal and they will release the money over the phone. It takes like 2 mins.

yea, i thought i figured it out but i just got another hold. I really dont think there is anyway around it. If you sell something valuable, there WILL be a hold placed on it.

^^^^^^^^^^
Just because you have not figured out the trick does not mean that there is not a trick.

Yes there are ways around. I have said that MANY times.
There are ways for your payments to NEVER be held.
There are ways to release held payments when ever you want them released.
I have used both methods this last week and they both work.

These methods will not be posted on this open forum.
You ask.... Well why won't you post them?
Well that is because I want these methods to KEEP WORKING as does everyone who knows them.
If they get posted then Paypal/eBay will fix the loopholes because they will read the post .

So i guess my hold is bc i was selling items starting $1.00, no brand names. i think thats my problem. They lift after 21 days right? If i were to sell last week, vs items from today, will the items i sell today hold another 21 days?

Here We Go Again · #55 10-24-2008

^^^^^^^^
The hold is 21 days from the day a payment hits your account.
Each payment counts down from 21 independently of any other payment.
And it counts to the second not just by days.

Example:
Receive Payment on Nov 1st at 5:26:01pm - Released Nov 22nd at 5:26:01pm
Receive Payment on Nov 2nd at 6:43:27pm - Released Nov 23rd at 6:43:27pm
Receive Payment on Nov 3rd at 7:13:56am - Released Nov 24th at 7:13:56am
Receive Payment on Nov 4th at 1:55:19am - Released Nov 25th at 1:55:19am

and on and on and on.....................

As soon as you start to recieve feedback a few times (5 in a row for me) they stopped holding altogether.

They were holding for even small amounts like £1 and such for me so I sold a load of cheapie items and then emailed everyone and said please leave me feedback and then by the time my real items ended I had no holds placed on my account.

Try it :D

Burst · #57 10-25-2008

Your holds will be definite if you have changed your user I'd as well. I believe until the 30 days is up the holds will continue until the "recently changed userid" icon goes away.

aking · #58 10-25-2008

ebay will lose a lot of customers b/c of this hold thing.

Here We Go Again · #59 10-25-2008

The 21 day hold does not affect every seller on eBay.
Just the new ones, but there are at least 3 different way around the hold.
If you do your research this hold will not affect you.

duderino · #60 10-28-2008

I am an unfortunate victim of the holds now. I know there is a way around it and that it is not being posted in the forums. Is someone willing to share the secret to me privately. Please. I have been a member of the forum for a few months and don't work for ebay or paypal. If email will work. email at zen2112@q.com Thanks in advance for any help.

Burst · #61 10-28-2008

If your account is less than 30 days old, or if you have changed your user I'd within the past 30 days. Then just wait it out and work with pp by shipping the items and or calling when feedbacks been given.

aking · #62 10-29-2008

Paypal is crazy. So i usually call paypal to release payments as soon as i see my items are delivered. Paypal usually releases the money while im on the phone with them. Well Today the lady says I have to wait 3 days after it is delivered for it to be released. So now im upset b/c of their inconsistency. I dont like this sometimes stuff. I had to hold my cool b/c i didnt want my account to end up limited, but i wanted to be a paint so bad, lol.

sycore · #63 10-30-2008

If you open new ebay accounts sooner or later the will hit you with a 21 days hold, no matter what paypal account it is linked to. I just got rid of mine by putting in tracking numbers that showed as already being delivered.

Here We Go Again · #64 10-30-2008

Hey folks....
Stop and listen for a second.

DO SOME RESEARCH!!!!

There are at least 3 different ways around this 21 day hold.
This is public knowledge.
DO THE RESAERCH.

aking · #65 10-30-2008

believe me i have done the research and tried everything that was mentioned publicly. nothing has worked
