I wanted to know when blocked payments get unlocked

I've been using eBay for a while, and I've made some sales, but I still haven't figured out how payments work... every time I have to wait 14/30 days, even after the buyer confirms and leaves feedback, and I find this really frustrating! Do you have any idea?

If you're a new seller and/or an old seller but not very active (who makes occasional / sporadic sales), the only thing you can do is be patient and wait the number of days needed for the funds to be released.

These are precautionary measures that eBay takes to prevent online scams.

Anyway, after a certain number of successful sales you'll get immediate payments (within 2 business days)

Kind regards.

For new sellers, those are the marketplace rules... did you read them before you started selling?

Preventive holds are normal.
