Breaking News: PayPal Holds Funds from PS3 & Wii Sales on EBay

Turns out getting qualified to auction your PS3 or Wii on eBay was only half the battle - reports are now coming in that PayPal is holding all the funds from PS3 sales via eBay.

Funds are held and accounts essentially froze until at least November 17, 2006 or when the seller can provide PayPal with a tracking number. Since PayPal is the only payment option allowed for PS3 and Wii auctions, even qualified sellers are left with no access to funds for almost a month, if not longer.

Earlier today we received a report from a seller who had been with eBay since 1998 and with PayPal since 2000. He has over 500 feedbacks with a 99.8% rating. Easily enough for the eBay console pre-sale restrictions. Here is his story:
There goes paying the $50 pre-order, and waiting for a check before picking up the system.... Gotta have the $1000 already to go.

Question is, what the @#)($*)@(*% are they going to do about the BIDDERS F(*&(S*&(*S&D(*& OVER the sellers?

had PLENTY of fake bidders on auctions last year for xbox
