Funds On Hold - Release by posting without cleared funds.

So, I set up a new venture on Ebay. 1st sale and funds have been put on hold for 21 days. In order to clear funds, Paypal say post the item. Paypal's own spoof email detection Help section states, do not reply to requests to mail goods before funds have cleared. Bit of a contradiction... So, my buyer is going to run a mile. Not prepared to wait 21 days. Can I hand deliver the item and have him confirm receipt there and then to have the funds released? (A bit of background, I've lost a phone in the past by mailing urgently "for a birthday gift" while funds were not yet cleared. Buyer said item didnt arrive, Paypal returned his money to him. Even the recorded delivery confirmed item delivered but Paypal were not interested. I vowed never to mail until funds were cleared to my bank after that Mickey Mouse episode.) Best regards NDE
