eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
@dill Yes, evidently my transaction was flagged in some way, but how, exactly, and why not flag it and notify me at the time of listing, and not after a sale is made? Wouldn’t that make sense? It seems by doing it after a sale, they’re trying to m... 
eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
Here’s the email announcing the new system, there’s nothing about having funds held pending delivery. Again, the lack of transparency.eBay is now managing payments for your accountAs a reminder, eBay is now managing payments for your account, whic... 
eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
@dill I received email notification of the sale as usual. The email said ‘your item has been paid for, it’s safe to ship’, pretty much the same as always. I logged in to my account and looked at the order. It showed a fancy 3-step status bar which... 
eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
@lowrider57 since the new system came into being a few weeks back my funds are being held until the shipping company confirm delivery has been made to the buyer, and... possibly beyond.Others in this thread seem to be saying that their funds have ...

@teo_audio Sage words on Amazon in particular. I've been an Amazon seller for two decades and I couldn't even begin to describe the angst they create for me on an almost daily basis, it's a full-time job just trying to keep a handful of listings '... 
eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
@fbgbill Thanks for bringing this up. I don't know what the policy is for this and why some payouts are made before delivery and others are held, potentially for several weeks after delivery has been made.I've looked through all of the stuff they ...

@czbbcl Yes, that's the thing that tipped me over the edge, the fact that they hold the funds. (My bank account was already linked).Now, if they released the funds paid by the buyer for shipping, so the seller could actually have funds from the tr...

Wow. It seems some of you guys have really been shafted.Please note- though I’ve had a lot of stress, extra work and inconvenience, thus far I haven’t actually lost anything other than my time and some hair. The point of my post was to draw people... 
eBay / PayPal: Beware - enough is never enough.
@dill It happened the way I described, but not in the way you've interpreted what I've written, hence the disconnect between what happened and what you think happened.Yes, I've been selling on eBay plenty long enough with a 100% record. Yes, I kno...

Manley Steelhead Owners-- Line Stage Input Good Enough to Use as Preamp?

Intimate, warm and holographic alternative
@tweak1 I suppose your comment explains why there are a gazillion different speaker manufacturers, models, etc and not just one or two.I enjoyed a year or so with VSMs, now, having moved everything into a much smaller room, I’m really enjoying the... 
Intimate, warm and holographic alternative
Merlins. Set up properly with a nice amp(s).You’re likely to tire quickly of speakers designed to be ‘warm’. Find speakers designed to be neutral and add your coloration preferences via electronics and to a lesser extent, cables.Most bookshelf spe... 
EXTRA! EXTRA!! Millercarbon Proven Wrong!!! Read all about it! EXTRA! EXTRA!!
Quick summary anyone? For those of us hard of consciousness.. Mr. White is who, exactly? Is his brother called Barry?
