I think the money from your first or first couple of transactions are held for 3-7 days, i forget. I know it wasn't instant the first few times but oncethe process is over it becomes instant

the way it works is the money is held until you receive positive feedback or 7 days from the item being received. which ever comes 1st.
from paypal.com:
[h2]When does PayPal release payment holds?[/h2]
Payments will be held in a pending balance for a certain time period. For example, if you receive a $100 payment (after fees), the $100 will be held in apending balance for that amount of time. After then, the money will be available for withdrawal.
The money may be released sooner if:
- We can confirm that the item was delivered
- Your buyer leaves positive feedback. (Applies only to eBay items.)

I bought some shoes off on eBay a few days ago. I asked for tracking information. I havent recieved the tracking info. Now I see the seller is seling the same shoes.
He hasnt leave me any feedback as most sellers do and his feedback is like 96 pct.
Should I get nervous?
