I have 100% ebay positive feedback as a buyer and seller, why is my payment being held? Is Paypal making money off the interest in addition to their fee while they won't let me access it for 2 weeks?
What gives?!

New sellers/sellers with less than 100 feedback may have payments held up to 21 days. To get the funds released sooner the seller must receive positive feedback from the buyer OR show online proof of delivery.
Did you give Paypal the D/C number.
Also Paypal makes a lot more money 30 cents + 2.9 % for each payment. How much interest does paypal make on held funds probably a lot less than 1/2 of a percent for 21 days.

I also have 100% positive feedback, and my payment has been held for 21 AND COUNTING! I still can't access it! Paypal is NOT a good way to handle transactions! The buyer that I am dealing with is new to ebay, and they can't figure out how to leave feedback, so here I am waiting and waiting, with no way to get my $1000!!!!!
