eBay Managed Funds

dontippetdontippet Posts: 2,606 ✭✭✭✭

I came to this forum to see what was up with ebay managed funds and was surprised to find a discussion thread about it. I tried listing some collectible currency this morning and was denied. With managed payments, i can't list bullion, coins, money, gift cards, etc... If I can't sell it, I probably can't buy either since other sellers can't sell it. Do you know what is up with that?

    post this over on the us coin forum. You'll get a lot more readership and replies.

    How to fix your "signature:"

    Copy that code and replace you current signature with it.

    They have not changed over coin/bullion sellers to managed payments yet because managed payments do not yet work for those items. Per the email I got, January 25th was the day when the changeover was supposed to start.

    So if PayPal is out of the deal, how are funds transferred to sellers?

    It's also possible that your listings were defective as today was the start of new requirements:

    Year and Denomination item specifics fields are already part of the listing process and are currently “recommended,” but will now be “required” effective January 20. The new item specifics requirements improve searchability for buyers and improve listing organization within the category. Learn more about item specifics.

    Ebay sends them to your bank.

    Trying to understand for sure how this works.... do they send EACH payment directly to your bank after the item is sold, ...or... do they accumulate the funds and only transfer when you request it (I wait until a certain amount has accumulated in Paypal then request a transfer).

    I believe that you set how frequent you want them transferred to the bank.

    Schedule your payout daily or weekly....Per ebay:

    "Regardless of how the buyer pays, payouts are generally initiated Monday through Friday, within 2 business days of payment confirmation. Once a payout is initiated, funds will be available in your bank account per normal bank processing times, typically within 1-4 business days."

    Cut PayPal out and collect their processing fee. Cha-ching!
