Ebay has today announced 2 key changes to the payout times for Private Sellers:
1. For items £25 and under payment will be released immediately following receipt of positive feedback. Applies to both tracked and untracked items.
(Replaces the previous rule regarding untracked items £10 and under)
2. For items sent using Simple Delivery if there is no confirmation of delivery then payment will be released 8 days after date of order instead of the usual 14.

'We’ve also heard your feedback and have expanded the scenarios where funds will be released after positive buyer feedback is received. When you’re selling a single item for £25 or less, funds will be available instantly if positive feedback is received from the buyer*. This will apply on both tracked and untracked orders. This change will be live in the next week.
For orders shipped through Simple Delivery, you will no longer need to wait 14 days to access your funds if delivery confirmation is not received. If an item is dispatched within 3 calendar days, we’ve reduced the payout time so funds will now be available 8 calendar days from the order date or 2 calendar days after we receive delivery confirmation, whichever comes first. This change will be live in the next week.'
