So, for the past week I decided to put my video game collection up for sale, so I signed up on eBay, made the listings and put them up for sale, etc. I made my first sale this morning (65 euros). The problem is that the funds are blocked until December 1st. There's no way I'm sending anything to the buyer and hoping for a month that I'll get paid or not, especially since I also get this message: "Your payouts will remain blocked until you update your account information." Since 10 a.m. this morning I've been trying in vain to sort out this problem, but nothing works. I entered everything that needed to be entered when I signed up (with confirmation email) and I have no clear details about what the problem could be. After reading a huge number of messages from people (sellers) in distress here and there, I decided to cancel the sale and close my account. First of all, I'm not selling for fun but out of necessity, I need this money. I'm an honest person and I have absolutely no intention of ripping people off. I've already lost a Saturday with all this verification and other nonsense. I refuse to stress myself out for weeks having to chase customer service, which, from all the feedback I've read, doesn't really care much about its users, or keep being sent from one department to another constantly. So I decided to cancel the sale, remove my listings and close my account. Do you think that's the right thing to do, or am I likely to run into problems when closing my account? Thanks for your future replies.
