Hi, I sold my Google pixel 2 xl via eBay today, the guy paid via PayPal, I log in to transfer the money into my bank account, but it days the money is on hold until February the 14th, any idea why? Obviously I will not be sending the phone at the moment. Is this a scam?
 
I am not new on ebay, been using it 10 plus years, don't sell that often, but buy something on ebay every week. I am not sending it without the funds being released.
 
Well I cancelled the order, explained to the buyer what was going on. He has repaid for the phone using a credit card on his PayPal account, now I can withdraw the money... So the issue must have been his end. And no I do not need the money urgently, I just didn't want to get scammed. Thanks for the advice.
