I arrived at that conclusion based upon a set of conflicting responses and advice.

Initially, eBay stated it would take 6 to 8 days for my bank account to verified. On this forum I have been told it could be 14 days, another response was up to 30 days. In your own response you state, "eBay will not reveal the length of time." Consequently, because there is no coherent timeline as to when payments are released it causes frustration.

I concede that checks need to made, but they need to be transparent and updated to keep the seller informed.
