Soo lets start the start the story at the beginning, im guy who in his free time "works" repairing phones while studing computer since, network and other computing stuff from 3:00 pm to 9:00 pm so i cant find a job soo i reapir phones so i can make some spare money.

I ussually remplace screens, speakers, phones bodys, batteries all kind stuff.It arrived the end of the month and i got a box full of like 3 iphone 6 and 6s screens , 2 7 plus screens,1 ipad air screen and some spare screens from android phones, so decided to sell those screens in ebay for 47 euros becose the glass was broken but the lcds on all those screen can used to make new screens becose the lcds are orginal from apple and are worth money.

Well i put the box for sell one week later i got a buyer, got the notificacion from ebay its time to send the item, the same day one hour later i got the package sent. And i go paypal and i got my my money put on hold for 21 days yes i know its only the first time , but you get fuckt multiple times in the process you want to sell something they charge you money on ebay, when you get the money in paypal you get charged again and when the 21 days of hold ends you need to wait up to 5 more days (Soo the guy got the item on 31 january and till 25 february i wont get the money) to get your money transfered to you bank but if you want your money money fast you will get charged again.

You can say:"Well use an other payment processor to get your money faster like direct transfer"

YOU CANT YOU ARE FORCED TO USE PAYPAL

Oh there is one more thing if person who bought it decides he wants to return the item you need to send him the money back and guess what you will get charged again (I know this becose i use to watch Louis Rossman and in one of his livestream ), and you will get charged from you account 2,9% from the total of the money you will send back in case 1,6 euros (in my case it isnt much but in the exmaple of Louis Rossman refoundidng 500 ~$ it will be 17 euros and add the amount that paypal charges you to use their plataform it ads up to a lot) 

The funny thing about all of this is i talked via chat to one of the support members I said:

Me:i see very excesive 21 days of hold on my money 

Which he replied:

Support memeber:Yes i understand perfectly, actually is one of the main resons that sellers stop using Paypal

Me:No wonder, 21 days of hold is excesive

I will link the rest on the conversation bellow if you want to read the rest of it in to version the original on with out traslation(spanish) and one in english

Thats my rant about this, actully want you opinion about this
