After you sell an item on eBay what do you do?

At what price if you sell and item on ebay would they?

  • I'm not sure but I've heard or thought I heard if you sell and item on ebay over 500$ or something, paypal will hold the money til its shipped? Is this true? Because I'm planning on selling something over $1000 and I need to transfer the money to my bank so I be able to pay the shipping charges, I do not have a printer, so I can't print a label online so I need to confirm this is true or not before I decide to list.

  • Answer:

    There is a guideline that lays out the hold times for eBay payments through paypal. There are some variables, but I want to say that they will hold any amount over $100 if you have a feedback score less than 100. Having your package tracked and being able to prove it arrived will usually get your money released sooner, but if you need the cash to ship it, you are out of luck. Definitely make sure you can pay for the shipping before you list it.

Be careful - you don't have enough money to buy daimonds wholesale - the markup on jewelry is terrific. I would suggest watching for job lot items, even things that cost pennies from overseas can be good and then you charge a reasonable handling fee. Nothing in life is free without some effort or risk - try to become an expert on something such as stamps, coins, albums, etc and then watch for deals from unsophisticated sellers.
