What can I do to avoid payment holds? Here are some things you can do: If you sell on eBay, improve your Detailed Seller Ratings ( DSRs )scores Avoid buyer disputes, claims, and chargebacks If you have a buyer dispute, resolve it quickly Process your orders right away and ship quickly using a service that provides tracking and delivery confirmation Upload or save tracking information or Delivery Confirmation numbers Communicate early and often with your buyers Make sure you confirm the address and phone numbers associated with your PayPal account, and keep them up to date Verify your account and keep your financial information (like bank account and credit card numbers and expiration) up to date
In early 2002, Plaintiffs Roberta Toher and Jeffrey Resnick filed separate lawsuits against PayPal, Inc. These two cases were later consolidated into one lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.The lawsuit alleges, among several other issues, that PayPal has placed inappropriate restrictions or other limits on customers' accounts and engaged in several other improper practices. Based on these improper practices, the lawsuit sought damages for money unjustly held, negligence, and violations of consumer protection statutes.Rather than dealing with a lengthy public trial and being forced to clean up their act, PayPal decided to settle out of court and pay $9.25 Million Dollars to Tens of Thousands of PayPal merchants who processed with PayPal between October 1, 1999 and January 31, 2004. (A mere slap on the hand for a company this size)Instead of a Judge forcing PayPal to change their questionable business practices, PayPal agreed to pay the settlement and walk away from the entire allegation.So what does this mean to current PayPal merchants? Unfortunately, this means that PayPal is free to continue operating in the exact same way it always has. Judging by the number of PayPal horror stories we receive every single day, it appears that the situation has only gotten worse since the settlement.
And on another note the DSR ratings is one of the worst things ebay could have ever implemented into their scheme of things. It is abused and always will be! Just wait till June when they roll out there new plan!

I was under the impression that Etsy was for crafts and such.. Can you sell just stuff on there? Like unopened blind bags or old books or movies?
They did this to me after selling on there for years! I have never had a negative feedback, I always try to be fair. My problem is I am a saturday only shipper so I had two people from Italy (who had items held in customs) and one person from the UK mark my shipping time star rating down. Now I have a forever hold on my paypal account. It has been a while and even though my dashboard shows I am fine in all catagories, I still have the hold with no end in sight. Every month they say they will review my seller practices the next month on the 20th and when that happens, it never gets removed. I don't understand, but I have finished selling there for good. I still have some ponies to offload but I will do that here.Does anyone know if the hold applies to transactions done outside of ebay as well? I am almost feeling at this point that I might just give the remainder of my ponies to my daughter and call it good. I have been so discouraged lately with selling on the internet. I sure miss the old days...*sigh*
