Are you a Power seller, or an occasional seller? I have yet to have ebay hold funds on me, but who knows? I have been a power seller for a few years.

Minimum power seller is $3000 in annual sales and 100 transactions. So its not too hard to reach.


Randy, in my experience, even the live customer service is just about worthless. I have spent a lot of time with them lately trying to resolve an issue (no success of course). Anyone who successfully navigates ebay customer service is a rock star in my book.

Randy, I am assuming given your volume that you are well into power seller status. But the international nature of your sales might trigger some hold policy within ebay. Keep us posted.
