Hi guys, I recently sold a high value Pokemon card and had an issue with the buyer trying to rip me off. Anyway eBay refunded him but I didn’t have to pay. They used the buyer protection scheme. I don’t sell that much but have always had instant payment (to my bank account). A few days later eBay emailed me and said that while they investigate all my payments would be subject to hold until it had been delivered. They also said it could take 5 days and that it would clearly tell me on my account when the restriction is lifted. And that they would email me back when it’s complete. it’s been around 30 days now and I haven’t had an email back. I can’t see that there has ever been an indicator on my account either. How do I find out if my future payment are subject to being held until delivered etc… please? Thanks.
