Sounds like the typical paypal scam.
Ebay and paypal do hold your money for new sellers BUT those funds are ALWAYS showing in your paypal account balance.
The scammers use this info to tell you that the funds are only PUT into your paypal balance when you provide tracking to show item is on the way which is not true.
If you are sending to Nigeria or similar then its a scam. If they are telling you to send and the funds are not in your balance then its a scam.
