I have just sold something on ebay and I'm away to ship it out until I see the money in PayPal says on hold. Why is this and what do I do? Not keen to ship this out if I've basically not got payment as of yet

Ebay and Paypal are 2 separate companies and have 2 separate policies for holding funds for 'new sellers'.
If yours was an Ebay transaction then its an Ebay hold and Ebay authorise when paypal can release the funds.

Normally for Ebays hold funds are released when tracking shows the item as delivered + 3 days (if you use Ebay / paypal postage).
Info in this Ebay link below about Ebays hold.
