I am new to Ebay! I have sold and bought already and I pride myself on being good at both. Recently I sold an Item for over $100.00, I was never told that even though I asked for the buyer to pay for shipping costs as it is Christmas and I cannot afford to pay out of pocket. My funds are being held by Paypal for 21 days! This is crazy, My shipping amount is over $50.00 and I did not have that in my paypal account. When I recieved payment I tried to print a shipping label the next day and found that all funds from this transaction were frozen! Great how do I ship? I am very pissed off right now. I had to transfer funds from my bank account, (instead of paying my bills) and now have to wait for 3-5 days to ship out an item that was supposed to shipped today and would have been if Paypal would have allowed me to use the shipping funds that were indeed for this item to be shipped anyways! We pay for this service, We pay for Ebay and We pay for Paypal and we deserve to be able to use the money that is rightfully ours at least for shipping!
