Not sure what's up with it but happened to me as well. Had an account for 10 or 15 years now but don't use it much. Bought/sold less than 50 or 60 things over the years. I sold a scope here awhile back and they held my funds.

Same here. Haven’t used my account to sell much in the last few years. $$$ cleared eventually. They do some weird shit now and their fees are pretty insane.

on the one hand, I am glad to see them doing more to protect buyers. On the other hand, it is a pain in the ass.

That’s weird, I’ve had them pay prior to shipping the item lately. eBay really sucks these days (fees, inconsistency , new rules etc) I don’t use them any more than I have to.

I only use eBay once I’ve determined it isn’t selling elsewhere. The fees suck but they’ve always held my funds until the tracking shows delivery. I think it is related to the amount of business you do with them.

eBay’s taken over the payment aspect of it, I don’t know if you can use PayPal anymore or not. They have their own system in place to get the 3% or whatever it is.

I haven’t used eBay I’m a really long time but did have PayPal hold my funds for 22 days on a spotting scope i sold. Of course they said if i provide a tracking number they’d release the funds but they didn’t. First time I’ve ever had that happen
