EBAY is withholding payments for up to three days after the item has been delivered, WHAT IS THIS SUPPOSED TO BE?? | Payment processing on eBay

I have to get something off my chest about buyer protection because it’s really starting to piss me off. Lately, my payments are being held until three days after the item is delivered! Only the almighty corporation that makes its money from our fees knows what that’s supposed to be about. Here you can have 20 years on eBay and be a seller with top ratings and still get this nonsense. If a package is on the road for three weeks because it’s going to a non-European country, I can wait more than three weeks for my money. How is anyone supposed to work like that when your liquid funds are jetting around the world as a package? Seriously, this really pisses me off. Right now, €1500.00 is on its way in a package and it’s money I can’t work with. Everything is done for the buyer’s benefit, BUT you don’t live off the buyer, you live off the seller. Too bad there isn’t an alternative platform! Maybe someone from eBay will read this and you’ll give it some thought
