Thought I would update everyone for future reference.... After A LOT. Of phone calls issue has finally been partly resolved. Money has been released into my Paypal account, but now the account is restricted. tips: post and Mark as sent on eBay ASAP. Always send In the post and never pickup-Add a tracking number! Get buyer to email you on eBay once they have received item (create as much of a paper trail as you can) 3 if buyer has left positve feedback on eBay, give a call to eBay and they can also request PayPal to release funds. If it's over $1000 have your Identification ready as your account will be restricted for another 3-5 days till they confirm your identification. I understand why they do it, but handing over an extremely precious and irreplaceable item I would also like some peace of mind.

Maybe for items up to a certain amount they could restrict for 14 days and anything above that amount for 21 days and keep to the schedule unless there's a dispute.
