I have not used eBay to sell anything for a few year, but recently advertised 2 x tyres. A buyer and myself agreed on a price and it was cash on collection after the buyer had inspected the tyres and they would collect today. Although I have a Paypal account I do not have a bank account linked to eBay itself.
The buyer then apparently made a payment to eBay and eBay have advised that they will hold the funds until 14 Oct. I don't want to released the tyres until I have cash in hand or in my bank.
Can anyone advise if a buyer can pay eBay directly and not use Paypal and also waiting 14 days for payment to be sent to a bank account? Seems very strange to me.
