Is there a faster way to getting your money?
 

I dont see this mentioned anywhere else. I am wanting to find out if there is a way to make paypal payments available faster without actually shipping items. I've had lots of problems with buyers getting free items because I have to wait 21 days to get funds and buyers sometimes do their dirty work before a week is even passed.

If I could get around this I would be fine even if I had to make new paypals every week.

I have tried some things. Printing a shipping label off paypal, marking an item as paid on ebay, and applying for a tracking number. Don't remember if this works or not.

I'm struggling with this - why would so many buyers do their 'dirty work'? I've never had that

Making a new Paypal every week? What's that about?

Paypal are going to hold your money for 21 days on any new account and if you are selling stuff that customers need to do their 'dirty work' on - well - maybe you are in the wrong business or on the wrong forum

Sounds totally shifty to me. Why would anyone want to know that information at all? if you are doing things correctly there wouldnt be any problem.

Do their dirty work? sounds like someone digging for info on how much you can get away with. ANother reason we have so many hurdles now when selling online. Thanks for that.......

Might be time to consider invoicing

Waiting 21 days until it is lifted is normal and part of doing business with ebay. I seldom have to wait the full 21. I ship quick and in most cases money is released. Any higher amount I see if it has been delivered and ask buyer to please leave fb. Works a lot for me.

I don't know what all the fuss is about. If you add tracking number to the paypal shipping even if its first class which is a few cents more for tracking number holds come off 3-4 days after the person received there item.

If you want to receive funds without holds then have buyers pay you through a paypal invoice, but just note most buyers wont do this since they are scared they are not getting the protection.

this sounds shady to me. "is there any way i can make it look like an item was shipped even tho it wasnt?"

even if you upload tracking, the hold wont go away until after the item has been delivered. the 21 days is not forever either. just provide good customer service and ship promptly and the holds will go away

It does seem shady - always trying to avoid the holds.

If you want to do business on ebay deal with the holds till they go away, if not get a merchants account..

Someone always trying to beat the system instead of working around it.

If u cannot handle holds then u do not have enough funds to operate a business.

I get my money on held accounts far less then 21 days.

Point is to work them until you have several with no holds.

Outside ebay sales = no holds!

not true, there are other forum members who claimed to have gotten holds on non-ebay transactions.

For a very limited amount of time that is

:doh: rubbish response

I am asking you again to start adding to your posts in my experiences


There is confirmed evidence of paypal applying holds for off ebay transactions.

It does sound very shady to me... for every 1000 items I sell a I usually only get 1 customer who pulls the dirty on me.

If you want to get your money faster then don't ship internationally. Only ship within the US. I get my money within 1 week with shipping 1st class or Priority. Shipping overseas will take much longer, of course, but you get more customer. I like overseas customers, they tend to always pay a little more then US customers.

But it seems you need to find another source of income or place to sell if you can't follow the rules of paypal. Everyone on these forums goes through the same ordeal that your in.

Until paypal trusts you or have a selling history they will put that hold. Nothing much can be done with it.

You come up with strange posts all the time lol.

keeps things entertaining at least

I just tried 5 old stealth accounts straight non ebay transactions and have had no holds.

Well guess what Fango, I have had sales outside of ebay with ecrater and have had holds.

OP needs to stop selling unlicensed products and stop accusing buyers of being "dirty" just because they realize what you sold them before the 21 days clear.

:amen::amen::amen:

Why would you want to Know This?,,,,and as for the "Buyers Dirtywork',,,Whats that?,,,You mean Open a Claim?,,,How Dare they?,,,,Don't they Know that Ebay Exists so that Lowlives can sell them some peice of counterfeit Bull$h^t and get away with it?

What is this world comming to when Paypal makes it harder for the Lowlives to to rip people off??

If the shoe fits,,,WEAR IT!!!

Now just so you Know,,,the reason that this forum exists is because of
Sc%mb@g* lowlives that spend their time ripping people off.

In order for Ebay and Paypal to protect people from these Parasites a LOT of GOOD Hard working sellers have lost accounts, These are the People we are hear for,,,,,NOT The Lowlives,,,

So,, If you are wearing that Proverbial "Shoe" the pack up the rest of your Sh!t and get to Steppin,,because this Forum is NOT for you,,,

Preach it slapped!

OP, time to clean off your slime partner...we see you. :boink:

:pound:Go slapped Go!!!!:pound:

Maybe paypal just doesnt like you and your selling practices. I started selling on ebay last week. sold 10 items shipped 10 items same day they received it received some of the BEST feedback a seller can get from a buyer and now less than 7 days after the items were sold paypal is releasing all the money.

I guess the implemented the supermedia like tracking where they track each item to see if its delivered waiting 1-2 days ( as 99% of customers complain within this time ) and release the funds should no one complain.

Unless you're selling real ****ty items you shouldnt have a problem with what they are doing if you intend to be legit in the long run.

When slapped dismisses you in in an open thread...consider his words and analysis well. IT is done

Dang! Slapped is his name fo sho!:hail:

This is the oddest question I've seen so far. So you're basically asking how to rip people off? Nice...

I like to rip girls cloths off, does that count for ripping off?

=}-

OP hasnt been back since he was flamed to death by us. think maybe he got the hint that we arent out to screw people and in no way are going to help him do the same?

Man,,,What in the world are we going to do with you?

Well, I do like to be slapped, or is that too much?

(1) Buy Yourself a sturdy Ping Pong Paddle
(2) Attach it to a Fans Blade
(3) Properly Position your Ass in front of the Paddle
(4) Turn Fan on and adjust to your desired Speed/Roation

I have already tired that when I was in the Navy in St. Thomas.

well this thread certainly hasnt gotten off track lol

Great post Sean.
