7 days after successfully sold the product, I still haven't checked the money into my PayPal

[grz_8-61]

As this is the first time I sell things on eBay, I am not quite clear about the process. Please help me.
About a week ago, I agreed with the buyer on the price of the item for auction, and I followed eBay's tips until I sent the goods by DHL. At that time, I also received an email from eBay, proving that the seller had paid money by PayPal. But until today, I still haven't been able to check the money in my PayPal account. This made me afraid to use eBay further to sell additional items. Is this normal? Do you have to wait a certain amount of time to receive payment after you sell something?

Hello!

@grz_8-61 While you still can, offer only bank transfer, only the money is safe for you. Everything else can bring trouble and annoyance.
You will have to have the link translated.

Thank you for the help. I found the reason out from your link that maybe because I am a new seller. so i need to wait 21 day

@grz_8-61 What you wrote is correct. That's why I wrote that you are better and safer off with bank transfers, because you have the money immediately and besides, the buyer can not make trouble within 180 days, as with paypal.
