I realized today that it has all to do with the recent change to eBay’s funds availability policy for sellers. It’s in eBay’s best interests the longer the delivery process takes to ultimately reach the buyer since they hold those funds now until 3 business days after the delivery of the item to the buyer has been confirmed. That means at least an extra couple of weeks for eBay to keep those funds in their account and earn interest on it. That’s millions of customers doing millions of transactions a day times all of that additional float time on that money. This can be more lucrative for eBay than their 13.9% fee structure. The question is, how do we stop it?
