Question about Ebay and shipping

Post by marilyn »

I just sold an item on ebay and was notified that I received payment. However, the payment has not yet gone thru to my Paypal Account. Do I prepare the shipping label anyway or wait until the payment hits my ebay account?

Did you get a message saying that you won't get your payment until 3 days after you get feedback or it shows delivered with a tracking number?

If you click on details for the transaction it will tell you if it is ok to ship or not.

Yes usually Ebay will tell you when it's safe to ship.

Exactly. Don't print label until ebay says it is ok to ship.

Hopefully I'm looking in the right place but it says estimated funds availability 9-23-13?




Tracking number: [Add]

Watch Count: 6

Estimated funds availability*: 09/23/2013

And then ebay gives me options to Print Shipping Label, Add tracking.......


Why the 9/23/13?????

Your customer paid, Ebay and Paypal are holding the funds up to 21 days to protect the buyer. I normally go ahead and print the shipping label. My funds normally clear a day or 2 after the package is delivered. I looked it up once and they hold funds until you have 25 positive sales ( I think it was 25).

This is right off Ebay :

While you establish your selling track record, access to funds from buyer payments may be delayed to promote successful fulfillment. As soon as you meet all of the following criteria, payments from your buyers will generally be available immediately:
•It's been more than 90 days since your first successful sale;
•You've had more than 25 sales transactions; and
•You've had more than $250 in total sales.

How can I get my funds quickly?

To access your funds as quickly as 3 days after eBay can confirm delivery, we recommend that you ship within 24 hours after your buyer pays and print your shipping label on eBay. With eBay label printing:

You ladies are awesome......I don't know what I would do without you! I got the label printed and plan on shipping tomorrow. Part of why I couldn't find all the information was because I could not open my email messages in Yahoo....apparently they are having problems as I just called them. I could click on the message, but when I opened it, there was no message so I had go thru paypal to see. Anyway, you all are awesome.
