Is there a dollar amount for the 21 day hold?
 

I'm having a weird situation (at least it's not one I've had before, in the past under similar circumstances)...

If I sell one hat (for example) for $120 the payment is not held (I'm months since hitting all the limits to have the 21 day hold go away) but if I sell 7 hats for $800 the payment is held. If I sell 10 $120 hats in one week, none of those payments are held, but one for even $650 will be held.

Is there a particular dollar amount (per-item) that makes this happen? Is it once it's over 250, 500, or something like that, or is it all about selling something in that price range a certain number of times?

If there's a threshold that triggers this, I thought I'd ask- or maybe someone noticed approx where it begins to happen. For what it's worth, I've always had a 100% perfect rating and ship with tracking. Thanks!

That's strange I haven't seen that before normally once the 21 day hold is removed for me, its removed completely no matter the amount but perhaps there being extra cautious with your account

Theres no set amount that Im aware of.
It sometimes feels completely random - or a glitch (since the limits should even be hitting those payments).
It happens and Im pretty sure theres no way to determine why.

'Cuse me if I ask the obvious

Are you selling with a fully verified and confirmed paypal?

Now this is a little tricker to answer:

Do the buyer(s) appear to be OK? I had a hold placed again on one account. Buyer had just got a neutral from a seller...
