I just averted a disaster with my eBay account. I was having problems getting my listing posted into my eBay account so I opened a store there and got 23 items listed and a warning popped up that all my funds would be held for a period of time. I totally forgot about this from selling years ago, but, I had all my items in my possession. I ended up having to close my store and delete my items. Does Bonanza do the same thing? If so I won’t be able to sell here either. I design my items and then send them to be printed and/or framed. I don’t have the funds to order and then wait on my money.
On a bright note, I googled “memorials for children” and one of my portraits was listed second in Google Shopping from Bonanza!

Curious to know if any of you have an idea as to why eBay is eliminating Paypal as a payment method for their shoppers. I wonder why they just do not offer it along with the new payment method like we do here with Amazon pay and Paypal?
I love having my Paypal debit card on me. It’s just really too bad that eBay is doing this.

Hi there! We do not hold funds from your sales here at Bonanza. Once you make a sale, your customer sends the money directly to your linked PayPal or Stripe account. It’s possible that PayPal may hold your funds, so if that happens you’ll want to reach out to PayPal directly to figure out why this is happening to you.

Did you by chance sign up for(or get involved in) their new “managed payments” where you can no longer accept paypal as a payment option? If you somehow got into that, ebay collects the $$ from your buyers and deposits it into your bank account and there is a time delay in receiving your deposits from ebay. If you have any listings up check and see if you have paypal as an accepted payment method.
I just came back here last week due to their new “managed payments” which everyone will be in by the summer of 2019~~no choice. There is no way I want to operate my business with ebay collecting my $$ from my buyers and then I have to wait for ebay to give it to me. I think a LOT more ebay sellers (and buyers) will be coming here and to other venues due to that change.

I forgot eBay holds your funds until they are delivered. New accounts they release after 21 days. The guy I spoke to said I should say there is a 30 business day before shipping. I said I do want to make sales. Duh I have to pay my manufacturers up front so 21 days isn’t going to work. I almost started crying but I am so grateful I caught it before I made a sale. I researched the PayPal option with eBay. They owned pay pal and they separated in 2014. eBay has invested in another company. You can use PayPal until 2020 but you can have it as your payment option. It’s not going to be their main payment company. I can understand why people are leaving eBay now.

No. The payments goes right into your PayPal account as soon as the buyer pays. It usually takes PayPal a day or two to release the funds though.

Ebay is just a bunch of goofballs who dot know what they’re doing they’re just making things harder for buyer and sellers such as adding a fee for everything making seller pay back to buyer without returning the item and banning a bunch of innocent buyers and seller clearly bonanza is better than ebay and if they try to remove paypal they’re going to lose a lot of buyers and sellers I’m talking up to 50%
Don’t sell or buy on ebay they’re is too much danger and plus it’s not worth selling with a bunch of feed and a ludoristly complicated system
