Its down to how the payment is SENT to an account.

1. If sent using money > goods / services option then paypal would see the receiver as a seller and apply the new seller hold. They would also charge a fee.

2. If sent using the send money > family / friends option then payment would be instant with no fee. (However that option is not available in every country).
