I thought I would try selling a few Uthernet cards on eBay.
It has been awhile since I have tried selling anything through their
system.
I sold my first one today only to find out they now plan on holding all
my sales for 21 days after the transaction is completed but I am
expected to ship the item right away.

Seems like an flimsy excuse to hold funds for interest bearing reasons
just like the big banks do.
Precisely! Heads they win - tails you lose. eBay are ethically lower than
pond scum. But, they are the only game in town.
and how much interest do you expect they are getting off of 21 days?
my mom just told me she is dropping her credit uinion cause after a
month it only accrued 76 cents on 10K after a month and its going down
lower than 0.x percent
it takes time to transfer money, and with the obscene amount of screws
now days they probably want to escrow it for a minimum time to cover
their butts + the time it takes to do the deed
hate to say it, but if you dont like it, sell it on your favorite user
group, or forums ... and deal with it in small claims court over
interstate or international
