Hello, Your bigest "risk" as a seller is not whether a check clears. Your biggest risk as a seller is PayPal refusing to pay you after a sale! PayPal now has a policy of holding (i.e., stealing) your money. I sold something on eBay weeks and weeks ago. I shipped right away and received positive feedback. But PayPal is "holding" my money. I even called PayPal customer service, and sent an hour on the phone. The rep said the funds were being released. PayPal even sent me an e-mail confirming that the money was on the way. But still, my money is being "held." Now, I have a new problem. The money no longer shows up in my PayPal account screen, bu it is also not being deposited into my checking account either. The money appears to be gone. I'm not alone! If you are a seller -- BEWARE! PayPal holds your money for no apparent reason and refuses to release it, even after you ship the item and even after you receive positive feedback. Sounds ike simple theft. Don't believe me? Do a search for "hold" in this forum. Also, check out this thread: https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/Receiving-money/PAYMENT-HOLD/m-p/127694#M5244
